Classic Carbonara with Crispy Pancetta
Sautéed pancetta tossed with chickpea pasta in a velvety egg and parmesan sauce, finished with a generous crack of black pepper.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz chickpea pasta
0.75 oz pancetta
1 large egg
3 large egg whites
3 tbsp parmesan cheese
0 tsp extra virgin olive oil
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 pasta until al dente, reserving 0.25 cup of the pasta water before draining.
In a small skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and sauté the diced pancetta until it is golden and crispy.
While the pancetta cooks, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, and grated parmesan cheese in a small bowl until well combined.
Return the drained pasta to the pot and stir in the crispy pancetta along with any rendered fat from the skillet.
Remove the pot from the heat and immediately pour in the egg mixture and reserved pasta water, tossing vigorously to create a velvety sauce.
Season with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper, then garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
