SPAGHETTI WITH LIME & ARUGULA (ROCKET)
I love the zesty taste of this recipe, and the fact that it's so different. I never would have thought that lettuce could be good with pasta but it's lovely.

Steps:
- Cook spaghetti in a large saucepan of rapidly boiling water until it is al dente.
- Drain.
- While that's cooking, remove the zest from the limes and finely shred to make one tablespoonful.
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat.
- If using bacon, add it to the hot oil first and cook until it starts to crisp before adding the lime rind, garlic, chilli and capers.
- Cook for a minute or until fragrant.
- If using prosciutto, stir it in at this point and cook for two minutes or until crisp.
- Add the spaghetti to the pan and toss to coat and heat through.
- To serve, toss the rocket and a bit of lime juice through the pasta and pile into serving bowls.
- Top with the marinated feta, a little of its oil, and a generous grinding of black pepper.
- Serve with a lime wedge on each plate, so people can add more if they like.
