Sprinkle a little freshly grated cheese on this bacon carbonara, and viola - deliciousness!
Ingredients
15gm Salt
100gm Spaghetti
3 strips Bacon (sliced)
42gm Grated Parmesan Cheese
4 Eggs
1gm Black Pepper
1gm Pink Salt and Black Pepper
1gm Sea Salt Rosemary Rub
2 stalks Fresh Rosemary
Directions
-
Slice the bacon into thin strips.
-
Once water is boiling, add the salt into the boiling water and before adding the Spaghetti. Cook and stir regularly for 8 to 10 minutes.
-
Once the pasta is cooked, drain the water from the pot and leave the pasta to cool.
-
Add sliced bacon into the pan on low to medium heat. Allow the bacon to cook slowly.
-
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk the eggs. Add grated Parmesan cheese and pepper while mixing.
-
Add the Spaghetti to the pan with bacon while it's cooking, mix both.
-
Turn off the heat for the bacon and Spaghetti once both are mixed. Add a scoop of remaining pasta water into the egg and cheese cream mixture. Work the pasta water into the egg and cheese cream using a fork.
-
Switch on the stove back to a low heat, add some pasta water to the pan and pour the cream over the top.
-
Mix thoroughly using a tong. The trick is to be gentle but fast by mixing the cream thoroughly until it starts to thicken and stir through.
-
Serve it hot with grated Parmesan cheese and a crack of black pepper of your choice.
