Carbonara of dreams with spaghetti
Now very much a favourite amongst the Pasta Evangelists community – and something of a signature dish – this hedonistic Roman classic is thought to have its name derived from when charcoal burners were used to cook the dish over campfires. In true Pasta Evangelists style, we’ve added our own twist to this classic, comforting dish, presenting a gloriously creamy carbonara with tangles of fresh bucatini – in our opinion bigger and better than spaghetti – which sop up this luxuriant sauce. Bucatini are widely enjoyed throughout Lazio, the region that is home to Rome, but particularly in the capital.
Although not entirely traditional, we use pancetta in our carbonara sauce because it imparts a deep, salty intensity that pairs with the richness of the egg yolk and cream. We finish our carbonara with freshly ground black pepper and generous shavings of Italian cheese. The wonderfully golden hue of our sauce is the product of the quality egg yolks we source for our Carbonara. Be transported to the ‘Eternal City’ by this classic dish with a distinctively premium twist.
Note: Please consume or freeze our pasta and sauces within 2 days of delivery.
METHOD
1. Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Salt the water (around ½tbsp per litre).
2. Cook the pasta in the boiling water for 2 minutes. Stir regularly to prevent sticking.
3. Whilst the pasta cooks, pan-fry the pancetta in a frying pan on a medium-high heat until crispy.
4. Lower the heat on the pancetta pan and add the carbonara sauce. Take care to ensure that all of the sauce is squeezed from the pouch.
5. Add 30 ml (2tbsp) of the pasta cooking water, stir well to combine with the sauce and heat until steaming, then turn off the heat.
6. Lift the pasta out of the water and add to the sauce. Toss together so that the sauce coats the pasta.
7. Serve topped with the grated cheese. Buon appetito!
