Classic Carbonara with Crispy Pancetta
Chickpea pasta tossed in a velvety egg and Pecorino sauce, topped with salty, crispy pancetta for a rich and savory finish.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz Chickpea pasta
0.25 oz Pancetta
2 large Eggs
2 large Egg whites
2 tbsp Pecorino Romano cheese
1 cup Baby spinach
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.13 tsp Sea salt
1 tsp Garlic
PREPARATION
Boil a pot of salted water and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While pasta cooks, whisk the whole eggs, egg whites, and Pecorino Romano in a small bowl until smooth.
In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced pancetta until it becomes golden and crispy.
Add the minced garlic and baby spinach to the skillet, sautéing for 1 minute until the spinach just begins to wilt.
Reserve 0.25 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta.
Turn off the heat on the skillet and add the hot pasta, tossing with the pancetta and spinach.
Slowly pour the egg mixture over the pasta, tossing constantly with tongs to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.
Add splashes of reserved pasta water as needed to reach a silky consistency, then season with sea salt and plenty of freshly cracked black pepper.
