Creamy Carbonara with Crispy Pancetta
Al dente chickpea pasta tossed in a velvety egg and parmesan sauce, topped with salty, crispy pancetta for a rich and satisfying finish.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Chickpea pasta
0.5 oz Pancetta
2 large Eggs Eggs
3 large Egg whites Egg whites
2 tbsp Parmesan cheese
1 cup Baby spinach
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.13 tsp Sea salt
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, place the diced pancetta in a cold skillet and turn the heat to medium, cooking until the fat renders and the pancetta is golden and crispy.
In a small bowl, whisk together the whole eggs, egg whites, grated parmesan cheese, and black pepper until well combined.
Just before draining the pasta, reserve about 1/4 cup of the starchy pasta water.
Drain the pasta and immediately return it to the warm pot off the heat, adding the baby spinach so it begins to wilt from the residual heat.
Slowly pour the egg mixture over the pasta while stirring constantly and vigorously to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.
Add the reserved pasta water one tablespoon at a time if needed to reach your desired sauce consistency.
Stir in the crispy pancetta and serve immediately while the sauce is warm and glossy.
