Pasta carbonara

The cook, step by step.

1. 1

   Step 1

   Done

   Cook the pasta al dente Cook the pasta according to the package al dente. Al dente stands for bite. Which means the pasta is edible but still has a bite. You're going to heat it even further in the last step and you don't want a weak bite. Before adding the pasta to the water, add the beef broth cube. This gives extra taste to the pasta and you notice that in the end result.

   Bake the bacon strips and add garlic During cooking, it is time to fry the bacon bars. Bake these not quite crispy but similar to the picture below. At the last moment you press the garlic, add it and turn out the fire. The garlic then still fry lightly while the fire is extinguished. You turn out the fire because you don't want to burn the garlic. This is happening very quickly at this temperature.

   Step 3

   Mix the eggs, cream and part of the parmesan cheese Then it is time to make the mixture for the pasta carbonara. You mix the whipped cream with 2 whole eggs. Of the other 2 eggs you add only the yolk. Then add about 1/4th of the Parmesan cheese and beat the whole together. When the pasta is ready, pour it and add the bacon with garlic. Stir this together with the paste and then add the carbonara mixture. The warmth of the pasta causes the egg to clot after some time and the clotting ensures a nice creamy whole. Don't you get the clotting all done with the heat from the pasta? Then you can always keep the pan above a small fire.

   After the clotting has taken place, it is time to serve the dish. Finally add some freshly ground black pepper and some Parmesan cheese. During serving this dish we served it with diamond bunny which we had prepared at the BBQ. Of course this is completely unnecessary but very tasty haha! Enjoy!
