Spaghetti Carbonara
A super tasty dish with minimal ingredients.
Preparation
- Bring a pan with plenty of water to a boil and add salt. Then cook the spaghetti in this pan according to the instructions of the brand you use.
- Heat a frying pan with olive oil and meanwhile cut the pancetta into thin strips. Lower the heat and fry the pancetta until well done. Grind some black pepper over it and turn off the heat source.
- When the pasta is cooked, drain it. Save about a cup of the cooking water for the sauce.
- Then put the pasta back in the pan. Now add the pancetta, including the cooking fat, to the spaghetti.
- Make the creamy sauce by adding the beaten eggs and half of the cooking water to the spaghetti. Stir this vigorously with a wooden spoon; if it is still a little too thick to your liking, you can add some more of the cooking water. Now sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the pasta and stir through once more.
- Serve with a green salad or briefly fried cherry tomatoes.
