Simple! Delicious! Authentic Pasta Carbonara instructions
- Bring a large pot of well-salted water and boil the pasta. (For a chewy pasta and for seasoning)..
- [Basic] Boil with well-salted water to make the pasta well seasoned and give it a clearer taste. It's not necessary to add more salt when stirring the pasta in a frying pan..
- In a large bowl, beat the egg with the Parmigiano Reggiano, black pepper, and salt until the egg becomes fluffy..
- Heat olive oil in a frying pan. Fry the pork with low heat. The pork fat releases oil so you don't need to use too much. If there's too much oil, take it off with a paper towel..
- When the pork is crispy, cool it down a bit and put it into the bowl with the eggs. Add the fat from the pork, too. (←it has a good taste).
- When the pasta is ready, lift it from the water with pasta tongs and put it in the bowl and mix it. Tip: Don't drain the pasta too much. Use the heat of the pasta to coat the strands well with the egg liquid..
- Serve topped with Parmesan cheese (not listed in the ingredients) and a generous amount of ground pepper. Enjoy! This classic recipe is really simple, and tastes rich but not cloying..
- Who added cream to Carbonara, the Americans? Or was it the Japanese? The authentic taste is similar to the classic Japanese dish of raw egg mixed with hot rice..
