Carbonara (Spaghetti/Penne)
Carbonara is a classic Italian pasta dish made with spaghetti or penne, celebrated for its creamy, indulgent sauce. The sauce is traditionally prepared with eggs, grated Pecorino Romano or Parmesan cheese, crispy pancetta or bacon, and freshly cracked black pepper. The hot pasta is tossed quickly with the egg and cheese mixture, creating a silky, rich coating without the use of cream. The result is a flavorful, comforting dish with a perfect balance of savory, creamy, and slightly smoky notes. Finished with extra cheese and pepper, Carbonara is a timeless favorite for pasta lovers seeking simple yet luxurious flavors.
