Ingredients for 4: 400 gr of spaghetti,
150 gr of bacon,
2/3
eggs,
100 gr of Parmesan cheese,
2 spoon of extravirgin olive oil,
salt,
pepper
nutmeg..
Put a large
pan of salted water on to boil, moderately salty, since the sauce is very tasty. Meanwhile dice the
bacon into small cubes, put it into a pan without adding oil
and leave it on low to medium heat
until the fat becomes
translucent and slightly crisp,
then remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Meanwhile,
beat the eggs in a bowl then add the Parmesan cheese, pepper and
nutmeg if you like it. Mix all the ingredients well
with a whip, then add the bacon.
Boil the pasta and when it is cooked, drain it, reserving a
little of the cooking water. Immediately, toss the pasta in your bowl and stir
quickly with the previously prepared sauce. Serve
the spaghetti carbonara immediately
and if necessary add more Parmesan cheese and pepper. (No more
cooking now, otherwise you’ll scramble the eggs). If the sauce is too thick you
can add a little of the cooking water you have kept aside.
