Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1 cup of the cooking water; drain the pasta.
- Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 8 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels; pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the drippings from the skillet.
- Add the leeks to the drippings in the skillet. Season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the heavy cream and cook until it begins to thicken, about 2 minutes.
- Add the pasta to the skillet along with the parmesan, half of the bacon and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; toss to coat, adding enough of the reserved pasta cooking water to loosen. To serve, top with the remaining bacon, more parmesan and parsley.

Steps:
- Start by boiling a pan of water and then cook the pasta for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, sieve and run under the cold tap to stop it cooking further. Then set it aside in the baking dish.
- At the same time fry the bacon until the majority of fat has rendered and it is crispy. Then put it aside on a plate until cool, and chop into small 1cm size pieces and place in the baking dish.
- Before chopping the leeks make sure you have cleaned them properly by running a knife length ways and running them under a cold tap to get rid of any dirt that may be inside them. Then chop them laterally into 1cm thick pieces. I use the leek up to about half way up from the transition from white to green, so there is a mix of white and green.
- Next melt 25g of butter in a pan and use it to sweat the leeks on a low heat until they are soft. Do not burn them. When done, add to the pasta and bacon.
- At the same time make the white sauce: melt the 50g piece of butter in a saucepan and add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Then add the flour and mix together and cook for another minute.
- Then slowly add the milk bit by bit, whisking with a hand whisk to get rid of any lumps. Cook until it starts to get thick, then add the cheddar cheese to the sauce, stirring all the time. Finally add the cream, the cream cheese and the nutmeg, and season to taste, mixing all the time.
- Then mix all the contents of the baking dish and add the sauce to the contents and stir properly to make sure the sauce settles to the bottom and covers the pasta.
- Then cover the top with breadcrumbs, (not too much) and sprinkle the Parmesan on the top.
- The mix can now be covered with tin foil and put into the fridge until ready to cook. To cook, place uncovered in a pre-heated oven at 180C for 40 minutes or until the top is nicely browned and the sauce is bubbling away.

Steps:
- Place a pot of water on to boil for the pasta. When the water reaches a boil, add some salt and the pasta, and cook until al dente.
- While the pasta cooks, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil and chopped bacon and cook until crisp.
- While bacon is cooking, split the trimmed leeks in half lengthwise, lay the leeks cut side down and thinly slice into half-moons. Fill a large bowl with water and mix the leeks into the water.
- Allow the water to settle and the dirt and the grit to settle to the bottle of the bowl. Using your hands, draw the leeks from the water, taking care not to unsettle the dirt.
- Drain the cleaned leeks on a kitchen towel, pat dry and, and then add to the pan with the bacon. Season the leeks with salt and pepper. Cook until leeks are tender, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- To start the cheese sauce, heat a medium sauce pot over medium heat. Add the butter and melt, then add the flour, cayenne, and paprika and whisk together over the heat until the roux bubbles; cook for 1 minute more.
- Whisk in the milk and stock and raise the heat a little. Bring the sauce to a quick boil and simmer to thicken, about 5 minutes.
- Remove the sauce from the heat and whisk in 3 cups of the grated cheese and the mustard. Set aside.
- Add the cherry tomatoes to the leeks and continue to cook for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and reserve.
- Preheat the broiler.
- Drain the pasta and add it back to the pasta pot. Combine the reserved leek mixture and the cheese sauce with the pasta. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer the pasta to a baking dish. Combine the remaining ½ cup of grated cheese with the bread crumbs.
- Top the pasta with the mixture. Place the dish under the broiler until the cheese melts and the bread crumbs are brown.

Steps:
- Add the pasta to a pan of boiling water and cook normally (usually takes 10 to 15 minutes).
- While the pasta boils, add the butter to a second saucepan on low heat and add the bacon to a seperate oiled frying pan. Also, begin to cook the sweetcorn in the microwave or in a fourth pan.
- Once the butter has melted, add the flour and stir until it forms one. Then gradually add the milk, stirring continuously until it becomes a yellow sauce. Whisk the sauce to remove any lumps and turn the pan up to medium to high heat, stirring continuously until the sauce starts to bubble and turns white. Then leave the sauce to simmer and thicken, adding three to four handfuls of cheese.
- Preheat the grill to a low heat. Once the sweetcorn and bacon are cooked, add them to the white sauce. Turn down down the sauce or switch off the gas if the sauce is bubbling violently, it should resemble a thick, creamy liquid. However, don't let the sauce go clumpy and overly thick.
- Drain the pasta when its ready, place in a large lasagne dish and mix in sauce thoroughly. Crush up a packet of crisps and spread them across the top of the pasta. Cover the crisps in the remaining cheese and place under the grill until the cheese has melted and top has turned slightly crispy. Serve hot.
- This dish can be reheated in the microwave if kept in the fridge to keep fresh.
