Description (Some HTML is OK)
Apparently, carbonara refers both to a secret society, that at one time tried to overthrow the Italian government and to the men who work with coal. This simple recipe is delicious and very quick to make. There are probably a hundred different recipes for how to make a carbonara and one of those things where every family has a speciality. Personally I think it's just a great way to have bacon and eggs. We found the recipe in an older cookbook - The Complete Book of Pasta by Jack Denton Scott.
Ingredients
Makes 4 servings
- 1 small white onion chopped
- 4 tablespoons butter
- ½ cup dry white wine
- 5 slices of bacon (chopped)
- 3 eggs (beaten)
- 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley
- ½ cup grated parmesan
- Liberal amount of pepper
- 1 pound of fettuccine
Preparation
Cook pasta al dente. Saute onions in butter until soft. Add the bacon and cook down, remove excess fat and add wine and cook until the alcohol evaporates. In a large bowl, mix beaten eggs, parsley, cheese and pepper. Fork fettuccine from pot into the bowl, toss and garnish with hot onions and bacon.
