Classic Carbonara with Pancetta and Egg
Al dente chickpea pasta tossed in a velvety emulsion of whisked eggs and sharp Pecorino Romano, finished with crispy, salty pancetta bits.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz chickpea spaghetti
1 oz pancetta
1 large Egg egg
3 large Egg whites egg whites
2 tbsp Pecorino Romano cheese
1 cup baby spinach
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp sea salt
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the sea salt.
Cook the chickpea spaghetti according to package directions until al dente, reserving 0.25 cup of pasta water before draining.
While pasta cooks, place the diced pancetta in a cold skillet and turn the heat to medium, cooking until the fat renders and the meat is crispy.
In a small bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, grated Pecorino Romano, and freshly cracked black pepper until smooth.
Add the fresh baby spinach to the skillet with the pancetta, stirring just until it begins to wilt.
Turn off the heat under the skillet and add the drained pasta, tossing to coat in the rendered fat.
Quickly pour the egg mixture over the pasta while tossing constantly, adding a splash of reserved pasta water as needed to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.
