    3. Make the sauce
    Mix the packet pasta sauce with:
    250ml fresh cream, and
    250ml milk
    (You can also use all cream if you prefer an extra rich sauce.)
    Pour into the pan with the bacon and sausages.
    Allow to simmer gently until the sauce thickens slightly.
    The sauce should remain creamy and slightly loose as the pasta will absorb some of it.

    Pour the creamy bacon and sausage mixture over the pasta.
    Mix everything together until beautifully coated in the rich creamy sauce.
