Creamy Carbonara with Crispy Pancetta
Whole wheat pasta tossed in a velvety egg and parmesan sauce, topped with salty, crispy pancetta and sweet peas.
INGREDIENTS
1 oz whole wheat spaghetti
0.75 oz diced pancetta
1 whole egg
0.75 cup liquid egg whites
3 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
0.5 cup frozen peas
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp sea salt
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat spaghetti until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, whisk the whole egg, liquid egg whites, and grated parmesan cheese in a small bowl until the mixture is smooth.
In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced pancetta until it becomes golden and crispy.
Add the minced garlic and frozen peas to the skillet, cooking for 2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and the peas are bright green.
Reserve 0.25 cup of the starchy pasta water, then drain the spaghetti and add it directly to the skillet with the pancetta.
Remove the skillet from the heat and quickly stir in the egg mixture and reserved pasta water, tossing constantly to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.
Season the dish with sea salt and black pepper before serving immediately in a warm bowl.
