[size=5]Fettuccine with Escarole and Brie[/size] (serves: 4)

¾ lb. fettuccine
2 T. olive oil
2 oz. pancetta or bacon
1 clove garlic
1 shallot minced
1 lb. escarole, cut into 1 inch ribbons
½ lb. brie (preferably a wedge), rind removed
__________________________________________________

1. In a large pot of generously salted boiling water, cook the pasta until just al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving 1 1/4 cups of the cooking water.
2. Meanwhile, in a very large skillet, heat the olive oil. Add the pancetta and cook over high heat, stirring, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and shallot and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the escarole, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, just until wilted.
3. Add the pasta to the skillet along with 1 cup of the reserved pasta cooking water. Tear the Brie into 1-inch pieces and add to the skillet. Cook the pasta over moderate heat, tossing, until the Brie is melted and the sauce is thick and creamy, about 4 minutes; add more of the pasta cooking water if the sauce is dry. Season the pasta with salt and pepper. Transfer the pasta to bowls and serve immediately.

Escarole is a variety of endive. According to Wikipedia: Escarole has broad, pale green leaves and is less bitter than the other varieties.
