• Add the egg mixture and toss to coat. Cook, tossing continuously to avoid scrambling the eggs, until the sauce is creamy, thinning it with the remaining pasta water if it becomes too thick (it should be saucy but not watery), about 1 minute.

SKILLET SPAGHETTI ALLA CARBONARA WITH KALE RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat bacon in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the fat is rendered and begins to crisp, about 5 minutes.

Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer kale, bacon, and shallots to a bowl and set aside.
• In the same pot, add the broth and pasta, adjust the heat to maintain a vigorous boil, and cook according to the package directions until al dente, stirring occasionally to ensure nothing sticks. While the pasta is almost done cooking, add the raw eggs, cheese and black pepper to the kale and bacon mixture. When the pasta is finished, remove from the heat, add the kale mixture to the pan, and vigorously stir with a wooden spoon until thickened and creamy. Season strongly with black pepper and serve immediately with more cheese and black pepper on the side. This Recipe Appears In One-Pot Wonders: Spaghetti alla Carbonara with Kale

RECIPE: SPAGHETTI CARBONARA WITH KALE AND HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°. Place the hazelnuts on a rimmed baking sheet and toast in the oven until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool and roughly chop.
• Meanwhile, in a medium skillet over medium heat, add the guanciale (or pancetta, if using) and cook, stirring occasionally until the fat begins to render and becomes crisp, 10 to 12 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the guanciale to a bowl and set aside. Reserve the fat in a separate bowl and let cool.
• In a large serving bowl, whisk the yolks, Parmesan, olive oil, black pepper and reserved guanciale fat. Set aside.
• Prepare an ice bath and bring both a large and a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the kale to the medium pot and cook until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the kale to the ice bath and let cool, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Drain and squeeze out any excess water. Add the pasta to the large pot and cook until al dente, 8 to 9 minutes. Drain the pasta, reserving ½ cup of the pasta water, and transfer the pasta to the egg mixture.
• Toss the pasta with the egg mixture, adding pasta water to create a creamy sauce. Zest half of the lemon over the pasta and add the guanciale pieces, kale and hazelnuts, and toss. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Top with more Parmesan and serve immediately.

SPAGHETTI WITH KALE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, strip kale leaves from ribs and stems, then tear leaves crosswise into 2"-3" pieces. Cook kale in boiling water until bright green and slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Using tongs, transfer kale to a colander and rinse under cold water, tossing; squeeze out excess liquid from leaves. Keep water at a boil (you'll use it for the pasta).
• Whack garlic with the side of a chef's knife to crush; peel off skins. Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large heavy pot over medium. Cook garlic, stirring occasionally, until sizzling, about 3 minutes. Season very generously with black pepper and cook, smashing with a wooden spoon, until cloves break into rough pieces, soften, and look golden. Add kale to pot and cook, stirring often, until darkened in color and very tender, about 8 minutes (garlic will break into even smaller pieces). Season with kosher salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta, stirring occasionally, until very al dente (2-3 minutes less than package directions).
• Using tongs, add pasta to kale; splash in about 1 cup pasta cooking liquid. Cook, tossing and adding more pasta cooking liquid as needed, until sauce lightly coats pasta, about 2 minutes.
• Serve pasta topped with Parmesan, red pepper flakes, sea salt, and more black pepper.

HAZELNUT & OREGANO PASTA

Steps:

• Cook the pasta for 1 min less than pack instructions.
• Meanwhile, toast the hazelnuts in a dry frying pan over a medium heat then, once golden, add the oil, garlic, oregano and three quarters of the lemon zest. Stir so that everything is well coated, cook for 30 secs or so, then stir in the cream and take off the heat.
• Drain the pasta straight into the frying pan, adding a little of the cooking water to the pan. Stir through the cheese, season well with black pepper, then toss everything together and serve immediately with the remaining lemon zest scattered over the top.

ULTIMATE SPAGHETTI CARBONARA RECIPE

Steps:

• Put a large saucepan of water on to boil.
• Finely chop the 100g pancetta, having first removed any rind. Finely grate 50g pecorino cheese and 50g parmesan and mix them together.
• Beat the 3 large eggs in a medium bowl and season with a little freshly grated black pepper. Set everything aside.
• Add 1 tsp salt to the boiling water, add 350g spaghetti and when the water comes back to the boil, cook at a constant simmer, covered, for 10 minutes or until al dente (just cooked).
• Squash 2 peeled plump garlic cloves with the blade of a knife, just to bruise it.
• While the spaghetti is cooking, fry the pancetta with the garlic. Drop 50g unsalted butter into a large frying pan or wok and, as soon as the butter has melted, tip in the pancetta and garlic.
• Leave to cook on a medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring often, until the pancetta is golden and crisp. The garlic has now imparted its flavour, so take it out with a slotted spoon and discard.
• Keep the heat under the pancetta on low. When the pasta is ready, lift it from the water with a pasta fork or tongs and put it in the frying pan with the pancetta. Don't worry if a little water drops in the pan as well (you want this to happen) and don't throw the pasta water away yet.
• Mix most of the cheese in with the eggs, keeping a small handful back for sprinkling over later.
• Take the pan of spaghetti and pancetta off the heat. Now quickly pour in the eggs and cheese. Using the tongs or a long fork, lift up the spaghetti so it mixes easily with the egg mixture, which thickens but doesn't scramble, and everything is coated.
• Add extra pasta cooking water to keep it saucy (several tablespoons should do it). You don't want it wet, just moist. Season with a little salt, if needed.
• Use a long-pronged fork to twist the pasta on to the serving plate or bowl. Serve immediately with a little sprinkling of the remaining cheese and a grating of black pepper. If the dish does get a little dry before serving, splash in some more hot pasta water and the glossy sauciness will be revived.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER & HAZELNUT CARBONARA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Toss the cauliflower with the oil, thyme and seasoning, and spread out on a large baking tray. Roast for 15-20 mins until starting to soften and caramelise. Sprinkle the hazelnuts over the cauliflower and cook for another 5 mins until the nuts are lightly toasted and the cauliflower cooked through. Meanwhile, cook the pasta following pack instructions.
• Drain the pasta, reserving the cooking water, then return to the pan. Take the baking tray out of the oven and add the cauliflower and hazelnuts to the pasta, then stir in the Parmesan, egg, cream, parsley and 1 tbsp of cooking water. The heat from the pasta should be enough to just cook the egg without scrambling it. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash more cooking water. Check the seasoning and serve.
