I cooked this carbonara recipe for my family last night – it’s so quick and easy – dinner in ten minutes or less for this one – depends on how al dente you like your pasta!
Carbonara is a pasta dish, so if pasta’s not your thing, then maybe give this one a miss. But for all you pasta lovers out there, and I know there are a lot of you, I hope you enjoy making and eating this one.
Carbonara Recipe – Ingredients
- Pasta – (your choice – my favorite with this carbonara recipe is fettuccine)
- Bacon – chopped into small pieces – allow approx 2 rashers per person
- Sweet Corn Kernels (optional) – fresh or frozen. As much or as little as you like.
- Fresh Cream – approx 30 ml per person
- Parmesan cheese to serve (optional)
- Black pepper to serve (optional)
Carbonara Recipe – Method
- Start cooking your chosen pasta
- Cook bacon in fry pan – add a little oil if necessary to stop bacon sticking. I like to cook until quite crisp
- Next, add corn to pan and fry with bacon for approx 1 minute
- Add cream and heat through – simmer for a minute of two
- You’re done! Serve with cooked pasta – I like to add the pasta to the fry pan and mix all together
- Serve with Parmesan cheese and black pepper (optional)
