Classic Carbonara with Pancetta and Egg
Al dente chickpea spaghetti tossed in a velvety egg and Pecorino sauce, punctuated by crispy pancetta for a rich and savory finish.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Chickpea spaghetti
0.5 oz Pancetta
1 large Egg
0.75 cup Egg whites
0.5 oz Pecorino Romano cheese
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Sea salt
1 clove Garlic
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, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, grated Pecorino Romano, and black pepper in a small bowl until well combined.
In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced pancetta until the fat has rendered and the edges are golden and crispy.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet with the pancetta and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, then turn the heat to low.
Reserve 0.25 cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain the spaghetti.
Add the hot pasta directly to the skillet with the pancetta and toss to coat, then remove the skillet from the heat entirely.
Slowly pour the egg mixture over the pasta while whisking or tossing constantly to create a creamy sauce; add a splash of reserved pasta water if needed to reach your desired consistency.
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately while warm.
