Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas Mark 6.  Heat the oil in a large pan, add the onions and fry for 4 minutes until soft.  Add the bacon and continue to fry for about 6 minutes until the bacon is a pale golden colour.  Remove from the heat and stir in the peas.

  3. Mix the pasta, bacon mixture and eggs together, then stir in the peas, milk and half the cheddar.  Spoon the mixture into a large roasting tin; top with the tomatoes, remaining cheese and breadcrumbs.  Bake for 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.  Serve hot.
