Carbonara
Laura SharradIngredients:
- 250g fresh pasta
- 3 large free range eggs
- 40g parmigiano cheese
- 150g smoked pancetta / guanciale
- Sea salt flakes
- Black pepper
Method:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, parmigiano cheese, salt and pepper.
- In the meantime, place the diced pancetta into a fry pan and allow it to cook out on a low to medium heat – you want to render the fat out but also get the pancetta nice and crispy.
- Once your pasta is cooked, add a ladle of cooking water to your pan with the pancetta, add your pasta and begin to toss.
- At the same time, turn the heat to low and add in the egg, off the heat flipping the pan to emulsify the egg with just the heat left in the pan until it’s creamy and thick.
- Serve with extra black pepper on top
