This is my first time preparing carbonara sauce. Being a first timer I need to find recipes with easy to understand instructions. Here's the recipe as well as I can recall.
Ingredients:
- 400 g angel hair pasta
- cheese (parmesan is best)
- 1 box all purpose cream
- 6 strips bacon
- 4 pieces sweet ham, sliced into cubes
- carbonara powder mix
- 400 ml water
Steps:
- Set aside 2 cups of water used in cooking the pasta for later.
- Fry bacon until crisp. Remove from pan and remove excess oil.
- Crush into bits.
- In same pan, cook the ham.
- Add bacon and stir fry for one minute. Leave some for garnish.
- Add the all purpose cream.
- Add pasta water and stir.
- Pour carbonara powdered mix and stir until completely dissolved. Simmer for another minute.
- Toss in the pasta and coat well with sauce.
- Serve in plate topped with bacon bits and grated cheese. Enjoy.
