I'm not sure what went wrong, but my carbonara turned out really watery.

I'm a vegetarian, so I use tofu instead of guanciale. It's a great meatless alternative.

I'm not a huge fan of guanciale, so I substitute pancetta instead.

This recipe is a bit more labor-intensive than some other carbonara recipes, but it's worth the extra effort.

The key to a great carbonara is using high-quality ingredients. Don't skimp on the guanciale or the eggs.
