How to make Spaghetti Carbonara?

Spaghetti Carbonara

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. spaghetti
• ½ lb. pancetta, diced
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup grated Pecorino Romano cheese
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• Salt and pepper
• Olive oil

Directions:

1. Cook spaghetti according to package instructions in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.

2. While the pasta is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add pancetta and cook until browned and crispy.

3. Add garlic to the pancetta and cook for another minute until fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.

4. In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs together with Parmesan and Pecorino Romano cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. When pasta is cooked, drain it and add it to the skillet with the pancetta and garlic. Toss to coat the pasta with the pancetta and garlic flavors.

6. Remove the skillet from the heat and add the egg and cheese mixture to the pasta. Toss quickly to combine, making sure the eggs are not scrambled.

7. If the pasta seems too dry, add a little bit of the reserved pasta water to loosen it up and create a creamy sauce.

8. Serve the spaghetti carbonara hot, topped with additional Parmesan cheese and freshly cracked black pepper.
