Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Boil the pasta for 9 mins, then add the cabbage to the pan and cook for 2 mins more until the pasta is tender but still with a bit of bite. Drain well.
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and fry the bacon for 6-8 mins until lightly golden. Stir in the garlic, cook for 30 secs, then remove from the heat.
Whisk together the crème fraîche and eggs until smooth, then slowly whisk in the stock. Tip the pasta, cabbage and garlicky bacon with any oil into a baking dish. Pour over the sauce and mix through. Season with plenty of black pepper.
Scatter over the cheese and bake for 15-20 mins until crisp and bubbling.
