Classic Carbonara with Pancetta and Egg
Al dente chickpea spaghetti tossed in a creamy, velvety egg sauce with crispy pancetta and a hint of sharp parmesan.
INGREDIENTS
2.5 oz chickpea spaghetti
0.25 oz pancetta
1 large egg
0.5 cup egg whites
3 tbsp parmesan cheese
1 cup baby spinach
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp sea salt
PREPARATION
Cook the chickpea spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente.
Whisk the whole egg, egg whites, and grated parmesan cheese in a bowl until the mixture is smooth.
Sauté the diced pancetta in a large skillet over medium heat until it is golden and crispy.
Stir the baby spinach into the skillet with the pancetta until it is just wilted, then reduce the heat to low.
Reserve 0.25 cup of pasta water before draining the spaghetti.
Add the hot pasta to the skillet and toss with the pancetta and spinach.
Remove the pan from the heat and quickly stir in the egg and cheese mixture, tossing vigorously to create a silky sauce.
Season with black pepper and sea salt, adding reserved pasta water as needed for a glossy finish.
