11 MEALS PROJECT - 5/11
FLASH AS PASTA CARBONARA
In heaps of boiling salted water, cook | 2/3 packet pasta (my kids like any small shapes and they work well as small pieces get well coated in sauce. DG says its due to increased surface area. Flash fact!) |
Finely chop and fry | 250g streaky bacon. (I am really tight with bacon so this is probably exaggerating. A little bit of happy pig goes a long way, you know what I’m saying?) |
In a bowl whip up | 3 egg yolks equal amount cream good grating of Parmesan/other cheese salt and pepper |
When pasta cooked, immediately drain and mix into egg mixture. Add bacon and another good grating of cheese. If pasta hot enough it will cook the egg and coat the pasta as you mix it. I know, its flash. | |
Serve with more cheese, S and P, and some | Random greenies. |
Serves 2 plus 2. Sadly, hardly ever any left overs but DG gets to buy a pie for lunch. |
