American Pasta Carbonara Recipe

- 2 ounce Finely-minced bacon
- 1 x Garlic clove chopped
- 2 lrg Large eggs lightly beaten
- 1/2 c. Grated sharp white cheddar cheese Salt to taste Freshly-grnd black pepper to taste
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add in pasta and cook for 8 to 10 min or possibly till "al dente."
- Meanwhile, heat extra virgin olive oil in skillet.
- Add in bacon and saute/fry for about 5 min or possibly till it has rendered its fat and bits are crisp.
- Add in garlic and saute/fry for few seconds.
- Remove skillet from over the heat, and set aside till pasta is done.
- Whisk Large eggs and cheese together and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- When pasta is done, drain well and return to pot, off heat.
- Thoroughly combine with bacon, garlic and oil.
- Stirring pasta continuously with a long wooden pasta fork, slowly pour in the egg mix.
- Continue to stir, over low heat, till the Large eggs thicken into a sauce.
- Remove from the heat immediately or possibly Large eggs will curdle.
- (If you are concerned Large eggs are not cooked sufficient, continue to cook till they form soft curds; it will not look pretty but it will taste delicious.)
- This recipe yields 2 servings.
