CARBONARA
The quintessential Roman dish. That true to roots Italian delicacy. That dish that Americans have turned into a cream base. What is it? Carbonara!!! Delicious, Rich, Simple, and only 4 ingredients.
Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Reggiano
- Black pepper
- Sliced guanciale
- Spaghetti
1. In a large saute pan, dice up about 1/4 cup of fresh guanciale into small dime size bites. guanciale is the cheek of the pig that has been cured. Saute until crisp and brown. Remove and let drain on a paper towel.
2. In a small bowel whisk together the eggs, Parmesan Reggiano cheese and lots of black pepper.
3. Once pasta is cooked. remove hot pan from stove you cooked gaunciale in and toss it back in. Toss in pasta and stir. Then quickly mix in the egg mixture to coat the pasta. Serve with more fresh cheese on top.
This is simple, delicious, and very RICH. You will never go back to eating a fake cream sauce version again.
