Classic Carbonara with Pancetta
Al dente chickpea spaghetti tossed in a velvety sauce of pasture-raised eggs and sharp Pecorino Romano, punctuated by crispy, savory bits of nitrate-free pancetta.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Chickpea spaghetti
1 oz Pancetta
1 large Egg
0.5 cup Egg whites
2 tbsp Pecorino Romano cheese
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.5 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Boil chickpea pasta in salted water until al dente, reserving 1/4 cup of the starchy cooking water before draining.
While pasta cooks, sauté diced pancetta in a skillet over medium heat until crispy and golden brown.
Add minced garlic to the skillet with the pancetta for 30 seconds until fragrant, then remove the pan from heat.
In a small bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, and Pecorino Romano cheese until well combined.
Add the hot, drained pasta to the skillet with the pancetta and garlic, tossing to coat the noodles in the rendered fat.
Slowly pour the egg mixture into the skillet while whisking or tossing the pasta constantly to create a creamy sauce.
Gradually add the reserved pasta water as needed to reach a silky consistency, ensuring the eggs do not scramble.
Season generously with freshly cracked black pepper and a pinch of sea salt before serving immediately.
