Notes
You can do the seasoning according to your own taste. If you don't have ras el hangout at home, never mind. Just use some pepper or an Italian spice mix you might have at home.
The sauce is already quite tasty, even without adding a lot of spices. The bacon strips, sun-dried tomatoes and caper make it very tasty on their own.
