I just love pasta dishes, and i just looove spaghetti carbonara 🙂 It tastes so good, and it takes no time to make.
Actually I have started to make some more pasta dishes at home, as it is really amazing to come home from work and be able to make a delicious meal that takes a second to make. Especially the days when Alexander are attending basket training and we are in a hurry!
I love parmesan cheese, and spaghetti carbonara are filled with parmesan cheese. It is in the dish and also off cause as topping 🙂

- Peel the garlics and crush it with the palm of your hand or the knife

- Cook the pasta – al dente.
- Before you pour out all the water, save a bit of the pasta water for later
- When the pasta is done, put it in a colander and then back in the pot again – No heat!!

→ TIP:
When I part the egg white from the egg yolk, I crack the top of the egg, and then pour the whole egg out in my hand. Then I got the egg yolk in the middle of my hand and I am switching hans a couple of time to get all of the egg white of. I this way I avoiding that the egg yolk is breaking, when i crack the egg.
→ TIP:
I think it is great with some chopped parley to this dish. It tastes better, it makes the dish healthier & just brings more colour to the dish ♥
