Step 1: I like to get my pot of water on to be boiling ready for the spaghetti at this time.
Step 2: Trim the roots, and outer leaves and green tops from the leeks; cut the white parts of the leeks into rings and wash under running water then drain well. Chop the onion finely; dice the de rinded bacon and chop the pine nuts coarsely.
Step 3: Heat the butter and oil in a large pan over a low heat when heated add the leeks, onion, bacon and chopped pine nuts and cook until golden.
Step 4: Add spinach and season with salt and pepper to taste and add the wine. Allow to evaporate and add the mashed tomatoes. Simmer until the sauce has reduced a little, then add the cream. Stir through and leave on a low heat for about 10 minutes.
Step 5: Cook the pasta in a large pan of lightly salted water until al dente. Drain and pur the sauce over the top of the spaghetti and mix through well.
Step 6: Serve immediately topped with the grated parmesan cheese.
