5 Ingredient Spaghetti Carbonara!

I like quick and easy recipes so here is one of my favourites!

Ingredients:
Spaghetti or Pasta
Double cream (around 40ml)
Parmesan (4 heaped teaspoons plus more for topping)
Bacon (3 pieces)
Egg
Olive oil
Salt and pepper

Method:

  1. Put the pasta on with a splash of oil. 
  2. Put the bacon on. I don't cook with any oil just for a little healthier recipe. 
  3. In a bowl whisk the egg, cream and parmesan. Then stir in the salt and pepper. I like mine quite creamy and not very cheesy so it depends on how you like it; play around with the quantities. 
  4. When the bacon is nearly cooked, cut it into bite-sized pieces.
  5. When the pasta is al-dente, drain the pasta and then put it back in the pan and add the creamy mixture and bacon. 
  6. Place back on the heat for 2 minutes, stirring continuously otherwise the eggs will scramble. 
  7. Eat and enjoy!
