    1 Cook pasta following packet directions. Drain. Set aside.

    2 Meanwhile, spray a large non-stick frying pan with oil. Heat over a medium heat. Add onion and bacon. Cook for 5 minutes, or until softened. Add mushrooms. Cook for 5 minutes, or until tender. Stir in chives, half the mustard and half the parsley.

    3 Place 1/4 cup milk with cornflour in a small bowl. Stir to combine. Add cornflour mixture and remaining milk to mushroom mixture. Add pasta. Toss to coat. Remove from heat.

    4 Transfer pasta mixture to an 8-cup capacity ovenproof dish. Toss bread in remaining mustard and parsley. Scatter over pasta. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden.

    Variations

    Broccoli or cauliflower would also work well in this recipe. Add small florets to pasta water for the last 3 minutes of pasta cooking time. Then add to mushroom mixture as in step 3.
