Noodles with pumpkin and bacon

Cut the bacon into cubes, fry in a dry pan and set aside, then cook the noodles in salted water. Once cooked, remove them and save the starchy water.

Sauté the garlic in olive oil, add diced pumpkin, salt, and pepper, and briefly sauté.

After a few minutes, pour in water so that the ingredients float and cook until the pumpkin is soft. Once the pumpkin is cooked, blend it with an immersion blender.

Add the starch water to the pan and heat it, gradually adding the pumpkin sauce, part of the bacon, and the pasta. Sprinkle the remaining bacon and parmesan on top.
