Spaghetti Carbonara

RECIPE FOR 2 PEOPLE

 

160-200 gr. Spaghetti Pasta

120 gr. Guanciale (sliced or cubed/lardons)

2 Large egg yolks

20 gr. Grated Pecorino cheese.

20 gr. Grated Grana Padano cheese.

Cracked Black Pepper

1 tbs. spoon vegetable oil

 

Put on the fire a large pot of water.

 

Bring to the boil and add salt; throw in the spaghetti. They will take 7-8 minutes to cook, plenty of time to get the sauce ready.

In a pan, over medium heat, pour in the oil and add the pancetta. It should cook slowly and get nice and golden (not too crispy/burned!).

In a mixing bowl, mix the egg yolk, cheeses and freshly cracked pepper; the mix should be thick but loose (not cement like).

Once the pasta is cooked, strain it.

Mix the pasta in the pan with the cooked Guanciale ( and it’s oil )then pour all in the mixing bowl with the egg mixture; you might need to add a bit of the cooking water should the mix be too hard.
