Steps:
- 1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions. Drain and reserve about 1 cup of pasta water.
- 2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet cook pancetta over medium heat until slightly crispy; set aside with all the drippings.
- 3. While the pancetta is cooking, in a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and yolks with Parmigiano-Reggiano, parsley and generous amount of salt and pepper to taste. After draining the pasta, return it to the pot and add the pancetta and drippings. Working quickly, add the egg and cheese mixture stirring everything together until the noodles are coated and creamy. Add pasta water, as needed, to loosen the noodles slightly if the sauce becomes too thick. Season with additional salt and pepper, if desired. Transfer to serving bowls and serve hot with additional cheese.
Tips:
- Use good quality ingredients: Fresh eggs, flavorful cheese, and crispy guanciale or pancetta will make all the difference in your carbonara sauce.
- Don't overcook the eggs: The eggs should be cooked just until they are creamy and slightly thickened, but not scrambled.
- Add the pasta water gradually: This will help to create a smooth and creamy sauce.
- Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and grated Parmesan cheese to taste.
- Serve immediately: Carbonara sauce is best served immediately, while the pasta is still hot.
Conclusion:
Carbonara is a simple but delicious pasta dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a creamy, flavorful sauce that will coat your pasta perfectly. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy pasta dish, give carbonara a try.
