➖ Recipe ➖
Ingredients -
400g (14.1oz) - Spaghetti
4 - Large Free Range Egg Yolks
45g (1.6oz) - Pecorino Romano Cheese, Freshly Grated (Substitute for Parmigiano Reggiano)
250g (8.8oz) - Guanciale (Substitute for Pancetta or Bacon)
Black Pepper To Taste
Method -
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta 1 minute less than the instructions.
Add the egg yolks and Pecorino Romano cheese to a mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside.
Place a large pan over medium-high, and whilst it is cold, add the Guanciale and gently fry it off for 5 minutes until it becomes crispy and the fat has rendered. There will be quite a bit of fat; if it’s too much for you, you can remove some, but I recommend leaving it in. Turn off the heat.
Add the pasta straight from the water into the pan with the Guanciale, reserving 1 cup (250ml) of pasta water. Add the egg yolk and cheese mix and vigorously mix until smooth. It would be best if you worked fast here, as the egg can start to scramble. Once combined, adjust the consistency with the pasta water until you reach the desired thickness and it’s nice and creamy. You may not need all the pasta water.
Serve the carbonara in bowls and top with the crispy Guanciale. Grate over fresh Pecorino Romano cheese and top with cracked black pepper. Dig in.
I’ll wait for the comments to tell me it’s wrong and that I pronounce guanciale wrong. This recipe achieves the same results whether you add the pork fat to the egg and cheese mix first or do it the way I did in this video. You do what you prefer.
