My first attempt for Carbonara is pretty much a failure! My eggs were cooked, and ended up, the sauce had a lumpy texture. The texture really affect the taste of the Carbonara!

And Darling really loves cream based pasta, so I decided to ATTEMPT CARBONARA AGAIN! I have searched different recipes and came out with my own version of CARBONARA!

Serving for 2

Ingredients:
- 1 bundle of spaghetti or any kind of pasta

- 6 slices of streaky bacon, cut into dice

- 2 slices of breakfast ham, cut into dice

- 4 tablespoon of grated parmesan cheese

- 2 eggs

- 1 clove of garlic, chopped finely

- ½ cup of heavy cream

Method:
1) Bring to boil a pot of water with some salt, and add in the pasta

2) Pan fried the bacon at the same time

3) Dish out the bacons once it turns crispy

4) Make use of the bacon oil and add in the garlic and breakfast ham

5) Add in the al dente pasta into the pan

6) Once the pasta and the ingredients are well mixed, add in the heavy cream

7) Turn off the fire on the stove when the heavy cream is heated up

8) Add in the eggs and grated parmesan immediately

9) Mixed well and serve

Darling and I both love the CARBONARA! All the effort is worth it!

Just a note… Original Carbonara only contains egg, cheese and bacon. BUT I love to have more sauce in my pasta, so I added the heavy cream! So UP TO YOU!
