Breakfast for Dinner? Carbonara dates back to WWII when American soldiers asked for eggs and bacon, but didn’t expect it to come with some pasta! An amazing dish and so easy to make!
Grab 3 egg yolks
2 cups of Pecorino grated
Freshly ground pepper
And mix until the mixture is creamy
Cook up some Bacon, pancetta or guanciale in a hot pan until slightly brown
Add a tbsp of bacon grease to the egg mixture and stir to blend
Remove the bacon from the heat and pour the rest of the grease slowly into the mixture while you whisk away so as to avoid cooking the eggs and hardening this creamy heavenly goodness.
Bring water to a boil, add salt and some olive oil, add your pasta (I used Rigatoni) and cook all the way through.
To help keep the egg mixture from hardening, you can place the mixing bowl on the pot where the pasta is cooking. Just keep an eye so it doesn’t harden or clump up.
When the pasta is ready, ladle some of the pasta water into the mixture as you stir. Add your cooked bacon and then gently add your pasta and stir until everything has come together! Serve and tear it up!!! So good! Thanks for Watching!
