Super Easy Pasta Carbonara Food

EASY CARBONARA

Steps:

• Cook the pasta in a pan of boiling salted water according to the packet instructions.
• Slice the bacon and place in a non-stick frying pan on a medium heat with half a tablespoon of olive oil and a really good pinch of black pepper. Leave it to get super-golden and crispy, tossing occasionally, then turn off the heat.
• Meanwhile, beat the eggs in a bowl, then finely grate in the Parmesan and mix well.
• Use tongs to transfer your pasta straight into the pan and toss with the bacon.
• Pour the Parmesan eggs into the pan, and keep everything moving, loosening with splashes of the pasta cooking water until you have a silky sauce. Make sure the pan isn't too hot otherwise the eggs will scramble.
• Plate up the pasta, and finish with an extra grating of Parmesan.

QUICK & EASY PASTA CARBONARA

Steps:

• Cook pasta 8-9 minutes per package directions; drain.
• Meanwhile melt butter in saucepan; stir in cheese then milk; cook, stirring, over medium heat until almost boiling.
• Slowly add a small amount of hot mixture to eggs, stirring; pour tempered egg mixture into saucepan; cook, stirring, over low heat until sauce is hot; stir in bacon and pasta; toss until evenly coated.

AUTHENTIC (AND EASY) PASTA CARBONARA

Steps:

• Put large pot on to boil for pasta and cook pasta as directed.
• Cut the bacon into 2" pieces and add to saute pan on medium.
• Grate cheese.
• Break eggs into large bowl and beat until smooth.
• Add grated cheese to eggs and mix until a paste.
• When pasta is "al dente", remove and drain.
• Immediately add pasta to egg/cheese mixture and use tongs to rapidly toss, coating the pasta. (Don't worry about the raw egg, the hot pasta will cook it).
• Add the bacon with about 1 teaspoon of drippings and continue to toss pasta until a creamy sauce evenly coats the pasta.
• Serve and garnish with a sprinkle of cheese, fresh ground salt and pepper.
• Watch your friends and family scrap the bowl!
• Nice served with a salad and a crisp white wine!

SUPER EASY PASTA CARBONARA

Steps:

• Bring salted water to a boil and add pasta.
• Cook pancetta, bacon, and garlic with olive oil in a pan. You'll want the garlic to turn a nice golden (not burnt!) color.
• While this cooks in a seperate bowl (make sure it's large enough to mix with all ingredients at the end) mix the cheese, 2 eggs, and pepper. Set this aside until pasta is done.
• When pancetta and bacon is crisp and garlic is golden add in the cup of white wine and scrap the little bits off the bottom of your pan. Cook for a few minutes to let the flavors come together.
• Drain pasta and let cool slightly, maybe 1 minutes.
• Add to bowl with cheese and egg mixture and stir, stir, stir! I stir until most of the cheese seems melted, then add in the bacon mixture and stir some more. Top it off with fresh parsley and enjoy!

SUPER EASY PASTA CARBONARA

Steps:

• Saute the bacon until crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels. OR do it before hand in the oven - about 350 for 20 minutes.
• Make spaghetti according to package directions. Cook until al dente and not mushy.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, beat eggs thoroughly. Have bacon, parsley and cheese ready on hand.
• When pasta is done, drain it, shaking breifly and then pour drained hot spaghetti into bowl with eggs. I know this is weird - but the heat of the pasta cooks the eggs. Immediately begin tossing pasta (with tongs works for me) with eggs until coated.
• Sprinkle with bacon dice, parsley and cheese and toss again.
• Serve with salt and pepper.

THE BEST CARBONARA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
• Whisk together the eggs, yolks, Parmesan, Pecorino, pepper and butter if using in a large bowl until well combined.
• Add the pasta and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain the pasta.
• Meanwhile, cook the pancetta in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 8 minutes. Add the spaghetti and half the reserved pasta cooking water to the skillet and toss to combine.
• 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.
• Divide the pasta among plates and sprinkle with more grated Parmesan.
