Creamy Fettuccine Carbonara
Ingredients
  • 5 teaspoons olive oil
  • 4 shallots, diced
  • 1 pound bacon, cut into strips
  • 1 large onion, cut into thin strips
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped
  • 1 (16 ounce) package dry fettuccine pasta
  • 3/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 3 egg yolks
  • salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Initiate cooking by warming olive oil in a substantial saucepan over an intermediate heat setting. Sear shallots until they become tender and pliable. Introduce the bacon and onion to the pan, stirring constantly as it cooks until the meat is uniformly browned. Introduce garlic into the mixture when the bacon has reached approximately half of its intended browning time. Set the saucepan aside.
2
Prepare a large container of water by bringing it to a rolling boil, then season it with a light sprinkle of salt. Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until it reaches a satisfying firmness. Remove the pasta from the water with a strainer and return it to the pot.
3
Combine Parmesan, cream, and egg yolks in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Combine the bacon mixture with the pasta; then, stir in the cream-based mixture to create a harmonious blend. Season the dish with a pinch of salt and pepper to enhance its flavor profile
