Rich and Creamy Carbonara
- 70 grams Pasta
- 5 cm Thick sliced bacon
- 100 ml Heavy cream
- 1 Egg
- 1 tbsp Parmesan cheese
- 1 Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Salt
- 1 Olive oil
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
- Add salt and cook the pasta for 1 minute less than instructed on the package.
- Put the ingredients marked into a mixing bowl and combine well using a whisk.
- Cut thickly sliced bacon into 1cm pieces.
- Heat olive oil in the skillet and saute the bacon.
- When the bacon browns, pour in heavy cream and simmer until it slowly starting to bubble.
- Stir together and turn off the heat.
- Reheat the sauce so it's ready when the pasta is done.
- Toss the pasta into the sauce and combine briskly while shaking the pan.
- When everything is combined well, turn off the heat and pour in the egg mixture from Step 2 and mix all together at once in residual heat.
- Be sure to remove the pan from the heat when pouring the sauce into the pasta.

- This is with Rigatoni (80 g).
- Other thick pasta such as Fettucine works well with this creamy sauce.
