Mouthwatering Homemade Spaghetti Carbonara Recipe

Greetings fellow food lovers!

I bring to you a recipe straight from the heart of Italian cuisine – the rich, creamy, and delightful Spaghetti Carbonara. This dish is classic comfort-food that’s perfect for a family dinner rounding off a busy week.

When store-bought pastas just aren’t treasuring your taste buds anymore, nothing comes close to a homemade Spaghetti Carbonara. With basic ingredients and simple steps, you’ll be surprised by the satisfaction you’ll get from the amazing burst of flavors in this dish.

Ingredients:

• 200g spaghetti
• 100g pancetta
• 2 large eggs
• 50g pecorino cheese, finely grated, plus extra to serve
• 50g parmesan cheese, finely grated
• Freshly ground black pepper
• Salt
• 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
• A pinch of parsley for garnish

Instructions:

1. Cook the spaghetti in a large pan of boiling salted water until al dente.

2. Meanwhile, fry the pancetta in a hot pan until crispy, then add the finely chopped garlic.

3. In a separate bowl, mix together the two kinds of cheese, eggs, salt, and a generous amount of black pepper.

4. Drain the spaghetti, reserving some of the pasta water. Quickly toss the hot spaghetti with the pancetta and garlic. Then remove the pan from the heat.

5. Add a little of the reserved pasta water to the egg and cheese mixture to loosen it, then pour it onto the spaghetti and toss well. The heat from the spaghetti will help to cook the egg slightly and form a creamy sauce. If it’s too thick, add a bit more pasta water.

6. Serve immediately, sprinkled with a little extra pecorino and a sprinkling of parsley.

And there we have it, a quick, easy, and incredibly delicious homemade Spaghetti Carbonara that’s sure to earn praise from any pasta-loving palate. If your love for Italian cuisine is anything like mine, you are surely going to fall head over heels for this recipe!
