How to make spaghetti carbonara recipe

Spaghetti Carbonara is a classic Italian dish that’s easy to make and delicious. Here’s a recipe for Spaghetti Carbonara that serves four people:

Ingredients:

• 400g spaghetti
• 200g bacon, diced
• 4 large eggs
• 100g grated Pecorino Romano cheese
• Salt and pepper
• Olive oil

Instructions

1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente (usually about 8-10 minutes). Drain the pasta, reserving about 1/2 cup of the cooking water.

2

While the pasta is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil and the diced bacon. Cook until the bacon is crispy and browned, stirring occasionally (usually about 8-10 minutes).

3

In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and the grated Pecorino Romano cheese. Season with salt and pepper.

4

Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet with the bacon. Toss to combine. Remove the skillet from the heat.

5

Slowly pour the egg and cheese mixture over the spaghetti, tossing quickly to combine. The heat from the pasta will cook the eggs and create a creamy sauce.

6

If the sauce seems too thick, add a bit of the reserved pasta water to loosen it up.

7

Serve hot, garnished with additional grated cheese and black pepper, if desired.
