Okay folks, first off, this pasta is very easy to make and very fattening. We will try to cut down on th fat intake, but then again that is why is don’t use measuring cups or stuff like that…Its all subjective, you hear that Ramsey!!! Its what YOU like, not some prissy little gourmet who is going to decide what is good and what is not.
Here goes,..
1 package of spaghetti
1 package of pancetta(bacon will do just fine)
1/2 cup of cream
Romano cheese, (quantity may vary…some people like it cheesy…)
4 eggs.
pepper. (lots of it…)Boil your water for your pasta, season the water will a handful of salt. While this is going on, pour two capfulls of virgin olive oil in a hot pan. throw in garlic, basil, salt, pepper, rosemary, oregano. When this is sufficiently heated(garlic has melted…) throw in pancetta. In a seperate bowl mix ONLY the yokes of the 4 eggs with the cream. Using a whisk, mix and throw in cheese and pepper. Once pancetta or bacon is cooked, remove but remember to keep a bit of fat/ grease. At this time Pasta should be cooked, remove, strain. Next place pasta in the pan, pancetta on top, a little of the grease/fat, and finally add egg/cream mixture. Mix together well and there you have it! Spaghetti alla Carbonara! (Note to self, you can use any pasta you want…) I gonna try to make a video of this one! Stay tuned!
