Meanwhile, put four litres of well-salted water in a big saucepan to boil. When boiling, add linguine and cook until al dente. Put a small amount of olive oil in a pan, when hot add pancetta pieces and cook until crispy. Put to one side. Once linguine is cooked, drain and immediately combine pesto and linguine. Add crispy pancetta and mix, add grated parmesan then serve.
