The real way to prepare a carbonara consists of ingredients such as spaghetti, eggs, Parmesan cheese, bacon or pancetta, black pepper, and olive oil. First, cook the bacon or pancetta until crispy in a pan. Then, add garlic and cook until fragrant. Next, whisk together the eggs and Parmesan cheese in a bowl and season with black pepper and a pinch of salt. Meanwhile, cook spaghetti in a pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Once cooked, reserve one cup of the pasta cooking water before draining the spaghetti in a colander. Add the spaghetti to the pan with the bacon and garlic, then stir in the egg and cheese mixture. Finally, adjust the thickness of the sauce by adding some of the reserved pasta cooking water. Serve with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil. Enjoy!
