No Eggcream Carbonara Recipes

Steps:

• Cook spaghetti according to package directions.
• Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown. Add onion and garlic and saute 3 minutes, until onion is soft.
• Add oregano and cook 1 minute. Add flour and stir to coat onion.
• Add milk and bring to a simmer. Cook 5 minutes, until sauce thickens, stirring frequently.
• Remove from heat and stir in sour cream, Parmesan and parsley.
• Season, to taste, with salt and black pepper.
• Drain pasta and toss with sauce to coat. Serve.

Steps:

• Boil the pasta. Meanwhile, fry pancetta in oil in a frying pan for a few mins until golden and crisp. Add garlic, fry for 1 min, then turn off the heat. Briefly whisk egg and yolks with most of the Parmesan and some seasoning.
• Drain pasta, reserving a little of the cooking water. Add eggs and a tbsp of cooking water, then mix until pasta is coated and creamy. The heat from the pasta will gently cook the sauce. Stir in the pancetta and garlic then serve, topped with the remaining Parmesan.

Steps:

• Get the spaghetti boiling in plenty of salted water.
• Heat olive oil in pan over medium-high heat and fry the pancetta for 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Beat the egg lightly using a fork in another bowl.
• When the pasta is cooked, drain it but put a bowl under the colander in order to retain some of the water; you may need that later.
• Now return the pasta to the pan, and stir in first the pancetta with the hot oil, and then the beaten eggs. The egg will cook in the heat from the pasta, but here is where the flair comes in; you need to stir the egg into the mix so that it cooks into a cream and not hundreds of pieces of tiny omelette.
• Add the cheese, and if the mixture is too dry, stir in a little of the cooking water from the pasta (no more than a spoonful). Cook until the cheese just starts to melt and the egg is still creamy.
• Serve with coarse-ground black pepper.

Steps:

• Cook bacon in a large saute pan over medium-high heat until it starts to brown.
• Remove excess fat from pan. Add olive oil and chopped onion. Cook until onion is soft and translucent.
• Add garlic, cook for another 2-3 minutes.
• Add water and white wine. Reduce heat and summer until most of the liquid has evaporated.
• In a separate saucepan, whisk together butter, neufchatel, and light cream over low heat. Add.
• Whisk bacon & onion reduction into the cream sauce.
• Toss cooked spaghetti in the sauce over low heat until heated through.
• Serve with an extra sprinkle of parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of pepper. Garnish with fresh cilantro.

Steps:

• Bring a large, deep pan of salted water to the boil. Plunge the spaghetti into the water, stir well and cook, following pack instructions. Aim for 'al dente': cooked, but retaining some bite in the middle. Take a few strands out of the water with a spaghetti spoon or tongs 1-2 mins before the end of the cooking time and bite into it. Repeat until you think it is properly cooked.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a frying pan. When hot, tip in the pancetta. Fry over a medium heat until the fat in the meat has melted down into the pan and the meat has turned lightly golden. Be careful not to crisp the pancetta too much; it will be cooked a little bit more later on in the recipe. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Crack two of the eggs into a mixing bowl. Separate the yolk from the third egg: gently crack the side of the shell and, using both hands, slowly open it into two halves over a separate bowl - you want to keep the yolk in one of the halves. Tip the yolk from one shell half to the other and repeat until all the egg white has fallen into the bowl below, taking care not to crack the yolk on any rough shell edges. Tip the yolk in with the other eggs and beat together, along with the double cream, parmesan and some seasoning.
• Add the garlic to the pancetta and return the frying pan to hob. Fry over high heat for 1 min or until garlic is cooked and pancetta warmed through. Meanwhile, drain the spaghetti. Tip back into the hot saucepan off the heat. Pour egg mixture over pasta, followed by hot pancetta, garlic, any fat and oils. Toss quickly and thoroughly with spaghetti spoon or tongs. Mix until it has thickened to a smooth, creamy sauce. Serve with extra cheese and freshly ground pepper.
