1.Step 1 of 7
Chop the shallots and sauté in a frying pan with a little oil and the diced pancetta. I prefer smoked pancetta, but unsmoked is excellent too.
2.Step 2 of 7
Cut the radicchio into strips, wash it and drain thoroughly.
3.Step 3 of 7
Add it to the sautéed shallots and pancetta and cook until done.
4.Step 4 of 7
Put the ricotta in a bowl with pepper, salt, a splash of oil and 2 tablespoons of cooking water from the pasta you have put on to boil. Mix well until creamy.
5.Step 5 of 7
Add it to the radicchio.
6.Step 6 of 7
Mix well and adjust the salt and pepper.
7.Step 7 of 7
Cook the pasta and drain it into the sauce while still fairly wet.
I always reserve some cooking water in case it is needed to loosen the sauce.
Mix well over the heat, add some Parmigiano and a drizzle of oil, and toss for a few minutes until the sauce coats the pasta.
