Classic Carbonara with Pancetta and Egg
Al dente chickpea pasta tossed in a velvety egg and parmesan sauce with crispy pancetta and sweet peas for a protein-packed twist on a Roman classic.
INGREDIENTS
1 oz chickpea pasta
0.5 oz pancetta
2 large Eggs eggs
2 large Egg whites egg whites
2 tbsp parmesan cheese
0.5 cup frozen peas
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp sea salt
1 cup baby spinach
PREPARATION
Boil the chickpea pasta in salted water until al dente, reserving 0.25 cup of the starchy pasta water before draining.
While the pasta cooks, whisk the whole eggs, egg whites, grated parmesan cheese, and black pepper together in a small bowl until well combined.
In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced pancetta until it becomes golden and crispy.
Add the frozen peas and baby spinach to the skillet with the pancetta, cooking for 2 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss with the pancetta and vegetables to coat them in the rendered fat.
Remove the skillet from the heat entirely to prevent the eggs from scrambling upon contact.
Quickly pour in the egg mixture and the reserved pasta water, tossing the noodles constantly until a smooth, creamy sauce forms.
