Spaghetti Carbonara is a traditional Italian dish that is easy to make and full of delicious flavors. The dish consists of spaghetti, pancetta (or bacon), eggs, Parmesan cheese, and a splash of pasta water. It is a simple dish that is sure to impress.
To begin, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the spaghetti. Cook according to package instructions until al dente. Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium heat, cook the pancetta until crispy. Once the pancetta has cooked, remove it from the skillet and set it aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and Parmesan cheese. Once the spaghetti is done cooking, reserve about 1/2 cup of the pasta water and add it to the egg mixture. This will help the eggs thicken more when added to the hot pasta.
Drain the spaghetti and add it to the skillet with the pancetta. Pour the egg mixture over the hot spaghetti and stir everything together. The hot spaghetti will cook the eggs and create a creamy sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a bit more of the pasta water.
Once everything is combined, top with more Parmesan cheese, black pepper, and parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy.
Spaghetti Carbonara is a delicious dish that is sure to please. With just a few simple ingredients, you can enjoy a delicious dinner in no time. Enjoy!
