Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the pancetta slices on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Bake for about 15 minutes or until the pancetta slices are golden brown and crispy. Set aside.
In a large frying pan, melt the butter, and brown the shallot and garlic. Add the beans, cream, rosemary, and half of the cheese. Then, add salt and pepper. Stir gently, and completely melt the cheese.
