A real carbonara… with no cream!
4
20 minutes
Ingredients
-
11 oz spaghetti
-
A dash of STAR extra-virgin olive oil
-
12 oz bacon
-
3.5 oz grated Parmesan cheese
-
2 eggs
-
Salt and pepper
Instructions
-
1.
Boil the spaghetti following the instructions on the package.
-
2.
Add a little STAR extra-virgin olive oil to a fairly deep frying pan. Once it’s hot, add the strips of bacon (which will release their own fat as well). Add a little salt and pepper, but go easy on the salt, since the bacon will already be quite salty.
-
3.
Beat the egg yolks together in a bowl and add the Parmesan cheese.
-
4.
Add the cooked spaghetti to the pan and stir for a few minutes to mix in the bacon.
-
5.
Turn off the heat and add the egg mixture. Taste for salt and pepper. Stir for a few more minutes to help the eggs cook without setting.
-
6.
Serve with a teaspoon of grated Parmesan cheese on top.
