Directions

Spaghetti Carbonara, a classic Italian dish that epitomizes simplicity and elegance. Originating from Rome, this beloved recipe features al dente spaghetti tossed in a creamy sauce made from fresh eggs, aged Pecorino Romano cheese (or parmesan), and crispy guanciale (or you can use smoked bacon).
Before draining your spaghetti, reserve a cup of the cooking water. The starchy water helps create a creamy sauce when mixed with the eggs and cheese.
In the traditional recipe for making pasta carbonara, the pasta water is added to the egg yolk and Parmesan sauce, but I prefer to add cream, which brings out the creamy texture of the pasta sauce more richly.

Steps

1
Done

preparation

1. Put a pot of water on the fire, add salt. After the water boils, put the spaghetti in it.
2. While the pasta is boiling, cut the smoked bacon into small pieces.
3. Into a heated frying pan pour olive oil, finely chopped garlic, then bacon and cook until bacon is slightly crispy.

Done

preparing the sauce

1. Mix egg yolks with finely grated Parmesan.
2. Then add cream and mix well.
3. Once the bacon is cooked, drain the fat from the pan, but do not remove the pan itself - its residual heat will gently warm the sauce, preventing the eggs from curdling, and the bacon will add flavor.
4. Turn off the heat and pour the bacon sauce into a warm frying pan and stir.

preparation

2. Add spaghetti to bacon sauce and mix well.
3. Serve this dish immediately. If desired, you can garnish with fresh basil leaves.

Bon appetit!
