400g spaghetti 1 tbs olive oil 200g sliced flat pancetta (see note), cut into 1cm-wide strips 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped 3 eggs, plus 1 extra yolk 100ml thickened cream 2/3 cup (50g) freshly grated parmesan, plus extra to serve 2 tbs chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves
Cook pasta in a large pan of boiling salted water according to the packet instructions. Meanwhile, heat oil in a frypan over medium publitim heat. Cook pancetta, stirring, for 2-3 minutes until beginning to crisp. Add garlic for 30 seconds, then set pan aside. Step 2
Place eggs, yolk, cream and parmesan in a bowl. Season, then mix gently with a fork. Drain pasta, then return to pan. Quickly add egg and pancetta mixtures and parsley. Toss to combine - the heat from the pasta will cook the egg slightly and form a creamy sauce. Serve immediately with extra parmesan.

I followed others' comments and used bacon instead of pancetta, doubled the garlic, added mushrooms and followed publitim the tips regarding adding eggs to the pan to stop it from scrambling! Will definitely be making this again. publitim

5 jhc0485 added this comment at 09:46am Wed 4th December, 2013 Really yummy and tasty. Followed publitim the advice of others and doubled the garlic, added some mushrooms and bacon instead of pancetta. My partner was a huge fan. Great recipe, will be making this again!

I cooked up some ham and mushrooms that I had in the fridge with some garlic and added with the egg, cream and parmesan. Really delicious and super easy. Will make again for sure.
5 annieliz1985 added this comment publitim at 11:27am Fri 10th May, 2013 This recipe was great, I did make a few changes though. I used lactose free cream and cheese and also used bacon and mushrooms, with extra garlic. Once everything was added I did put it on a very low heat to cook the mix as my pasta had gone a little cold. Just delish publitim and super easy, will defiantly publitim make again!
4 merriec added this comment at 07:44pm Tue 12th February, 2013 Nice carbonara, the kids loved it. I added some mushrooms publitim because I had some that needed using and it tasted good. I also used bacon rather publitim than pancetta because that is what I had.
3 BeeSmeg added this comment at 09:48pm Sat 9th February, 2013 I had the scrambled eggs issue too and I was very careful to have the pan off of the heat. I guess it's a very fine line between sufficiently warming the sauce and scrambling the eggs.
5 m-uu-mmm added this comment at 07:03pm Sun 30th September, 2012 Was not sure the family would like this, thought with 3 eggs may be too eggy. Well glad i persevered and cooked it, thumbs up all round, even fussy husband like it. Sure easy too and quick to make. Will definately be making it again.
