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.

Categories     Pork

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.

I don't recommend this pasta carbonara recipe. The sauce was too thick and the pasta was undercooked. I ended up throwing it away.

This pasta carbonara was a disaster! The sauce curdled and the pasta was mushy. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I will not be making this recipe again.

This pasta carbonara was a bit bland. The sauce was not very flavorful and the pasta was overcooked. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

This pasta carbonara was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still good. The sauce was very creamy and cheesy, and the pancetta added a nice smoky flavor. I think I would prefer a recipe with a lighter sauce next time.

I'm not usually a fan of pasta carbonara, but this recipe changed my mind. The sauce was light and flavorful, and the pancetta added a nice crispy texture. I will definitely be making this recipe again.

This pasta carbonara was a hit with my friends! I made it for a dinner party last weekend and everyone raved about it. The sauce was smooth and rich, and the pasta was cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this recipe again.

I've tried many pasta carbonara recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The sauce is so creamy and flavorful, and the pancetta adds the perfect amount of smokiness. I will definitely be making this recipe again and again.

This pasta carbonara recipe is a lifesaver! I'm a busy working mom and I don't have a lot of time to cook, but this dish comes together in just 20 minutes. It's also incredibly delicious and my whole family loves it.
