Penne Carbonara With Bacon Recipes

ITALIAN CARBONARA WITH BACON

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Reserve 2 tablespoons bacon fat in the skillet and discard the rest. Chop bacon when cool enough to handle.
• Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and onion to reserved bacon fat in the skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour vermouth into the pan and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, about 1 minute. Mix in chopped bacon.
• Drain spaghetti, transfer to a large serving bowl, and mix in remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add bacon-onion mixture, Parmesan cheese, cream, eggs, and pepper to the hot pasta; stir until spaghetti is well coated and sauce is creamy.

PENNE A LA CARBONARA

Steps:

• Heat a large saute pan, until hot. Add pancetta and saute until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Season with black pepper and remove pan from heat.
• In a medium bowl, beat the eggs and cream. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in Parmesan, reserving 2 tablespoons for garnish.
• In a large pot, boil 6 quarts of salted boiling water. Add pasta and cook until al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain pasta in a colander. Do not rinse with water; you want to retain the pasta's natural starches so that the sauce will stick. While the pasta is still hot, return it back to the pot. Add the browned pancetta and mix well. Add the cream mixture and coat the pasta completely. It's important to work quickly while the pasta is still warm so that the cream mixture will cook, but not curdle. Add remaining Parmesan and chopped parsley.

• Place the chopped bacon and onion in a skillet over medium heat, and cook and stir until the bacon is crisp and the onion is beginning to brown, about 10 minutes.
• While the bacon and onion are cooking, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the penne, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.

JAMIE OLIVERS PASTA CARBONARA

Steps:

• Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil, add the farfalle, and cook according to the packet instructions.
• Whisk the egg in a bowl with the cream, salt and pepper.
• Put the pancetta or bacon into a second pan and cook until crispy and golden.
• When the farfalle is nearly cooked, add the peas for the last minute and a half. This way they will burst in your mouth and be lovely and sweet.
• When cooked, drain in a colander, saving a little of the cooking water.
• Add the pasta to the pancetta and stir in most of the mint, finely sliced - if the pan isn't big enough, mix it all together in a large warmed bowl.
• Now add the egg and cream mix to the pasta. What's important here is that you add it while the pasta is still hot. This way, the residual heat of the pasta will cook the eggs, but not so that they resemble scrambled eggs.
• The pasta will actually cook the egg enough to give you a silky smooth sauce.
• Toss together and loosen with a little of the reserved cooking water if necessary.
• Season with salt and pepper, sprinkle with the Parmesan and the rest of the mint leaves, and serve as soon as possible.

QUICK CREAMY TASTY CARBONARA

Steps:

• First of get some salted water on the boil and add a good glug of olive oil. Also get a large saute pan on a medium heat
• As the water is coming up to the boil cut the bacon into small squares or thin strips and crush or finly chop the garlic
• By this point the water should be at boiling point. Put your pasta in the water and everynow and then give it a stir so that it does not stick together.
• Add some olive oil to the saute pan, once the oil is warm add the bacon.
• Fry the bacon till its just starting to colour, then at this point add your garlic. Make sure the pan is not so hot that the garlic is going to burn. Season with plenty of black pepper. Do not season with salt, you will have enough from the bacon and the cheese
• Once the bacon is cooked and nicely browning then add a good pinch of each of the dried herbs. Toss the bacon and garlic around with the herbs the cook through for a minute or two then pour in your cream.
• Do not worry about the cream spiltting, as its double cream this basically can not happen. Do not boil the cream just let it get up to a good simmer. By now your pasta should be cooked. Drain the pasta and then add to the sauce in the saute pan. Mix together well. Grate in plenty of the pecorino and mix well. Taste the sauce and add more cheese if you like and add any seasoning that you think it may need.
• Seprate between 4 warmed plates or pasta bowls and enjoy with some nice garlic bread or toasted garlic ciabbata

PENNE ALLA CARBONARA

Steps:

• In a large pan fry the pancetta in olive oil, slowly, so that it releases its own fat before becoming crisp. Add some black pepper.
• Beat the egg yolks with the cream and season with salt and pepper. Add half of the parmesan.
• Meanwhile, cook the penne (according to package directions) in a large pot of salted boiling water and then drain thoroughly.
• Combine immediately with the hot pancetta and the oil, and then pour in the cream mixture. Stir to coat each pasta piece; the heat from the hot pasta will cook the egg slightly.
• Finally add the remaining Parmesan and serve.
