Super Easy Pasta Carbonara image

This recipe is from The Silver Palate cookbook. It comes together very quickly - especially if you precook the bacon. I usually do it on the weekend in the oven, remove, drain and paper towels on a plate in the fridge. For the weekday meal, I take the bacon out of the fridge, rough chop it and microwave for about 45 seconds. It's easy and delicious.

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb bacon, diced
1 lb spaghetti (I prefer about 3/4)
3 eggs, large
1/3 cup flat-leaf Italian parsley, chopped
1 cup parmesan cheese, must be fresh
salt and pepper

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.

This recipe was easy to follow and the pasta turned out great! I used a different type of cheese than the recipe called for, but it still turned out delicious.
