Method
Cook the pasta in a saucepan of boiling salted water according to the packet instructions.

Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan, add the bacon and cook over a medium heat, stirring often, until crisp.

Add the garlic and chilli and cook for 1 minute. Add the kale and cook for 1–2 minutes, or until wilted and tender.
