Spaghetti Carbonara

Ingredients
  

  • 500 grams spaghetti pasta
  • 200 grams pancetta
  • 1 1/4 cups grated pecorino romano cheese
  • 3 eggs whisked

Instructions
 

  • Pepper to season
  • Add the eggs, pecorino and pepper into a bowl and whisk well with a fork. Set aside.
  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, add pasta and cook just under the recommended time. Drain the cooked pasta, but reserve 1 cup of the pasta water.
  • Cook the pancetta in a saucepan over medium heat for 10 minutes or until the pancetta starts to crisp. Add the drained pasta to the saucepan with the pancetta.
  • Reduce to the lowest heat and add the reserved pasta water. Simmer and stir for 1 minute.
  • Turn off the heat and gently combine the eggs and pecorino mix together. The residue heat will cook the egg and will create a creamy sauce.
  • Serve with extra pecorino. ENJOY!
