    This was really good, my hubby loved it. I substituted bacon for the pancetta since I didn't have any. I made sure to drain the pan after sauteing the onions. I don't know how much grease pancetta has as opposed to bacon, but draining would've been a good step to add to the directions.

    Made this recipe exactly as shown. It was way too tomato-ey and not enough flavor. A 28 oz can of tomato puree is way too much to use with the other ingredients. Maybe try using crushed tomatoes, more cayenne pepper, more garlic and make sure you finely chop the pancetta instead of cube-ing it.

    Very simple but good! I couldn't find pancetta so I substituted 8 oz of bacon and it tasted awesome.

    We thought this was really tasty and my teenagers loved it! I didn't have tomato puree but used a combination of tomato sauce and tomato paste. Since the grocery store didn't have pancetta, I used prosciutto instead and it was really tasty. This one was asked for again!

    There was nothing special about this recipe. Yes simple, but not a quick dish to put together after work. I won't make it again, but glad I did try it. Only about 1000 other saved recipes I need to try to get through.
