Rock & Roll Spaghetti Carbonara
- 1 lb spaghetti
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream (or so)
- some olive oil
- 3 shallots, sliced thin
- 2 -3 cloves garlic, smashed and or minced
- 1/2 - 1 lb thinly sliced bacon, cut into squares
- 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese or 1/2 cup romano cheese
- Turn on your boombox with some loud rock music.
- Boil water for spaghetti as you normally would.
- Mix egg yolks and cream together and set aside.
- In a saute pan, place olive oil, bacon, and garlic, to cook over low heat, till bacon is crisp.
- Make sure to cook the bacon very slowly.
- When done, add shallots mix for half a minute or so, and pull from heat.
- Drain pasta and place into a large pot or bowl.
- Add bacon mix and toss once.
- Add egg/cream mix and cheese, toss again.
- These last three steps should be done very quickly to cook the egg mixture, and spread the cheese evenly.
- Serve wilth freshly ground black pepper, a fresh salad, and a nice glass of wine.
- My choice on wine is Johanisberg Reisling.
- Rock on!
