Classic Carbonara with Pancetta and Egg
Chickpea spaghetti boiled al dente and tossed in a velvety egg and parmesan sauce, punctuated by crispy, savory bites of nitrate-free pancetta.
INGREDIENTS
2.5 oz Chickpea spaghetti
1 oz Nitrate-free pancetta
1 large Egg
4 large Egg whites
2 tbsp Grated parmesan cheese
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Sea salt
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea spaghetti according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, add the diced pancetta to a large skillet over medium heat and sauté until the fat has rendered and the meat is crispy.
In a small bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, grated parmesan cheese, and black pepper until well combined.
Reserve about 1/2 cup of the hot pasta cooking water before draining the spaghetti.
Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the pancetta, tossing to coat the noodles in the rendered fat.
Remove the skillet from the heat immediately to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
Slowly whisk 2 tablespoons of the reserved pasta water into the egg mixture to temper it, then pour the mixture over the pasta.
Toss vigorously, adding more pasta water a tablespoon at a time as needed, until a smooth, creamy sauce forms.
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately.
