Zubereitung von Spaghetti Carbonara For One
- Cook bacon in a cast iron skillet or small pan over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove bacon with a slotted spoon, reserving 1 tablespoon of bacon grease in the pan. Set bacon aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain, then crumble.
- Add minced garlic to the bacon grease in the skillet and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant. Remove from heat.
- Cook pasta according to package directions in a separate pot of boiling, salted water until al dente. Reserve 1/4 cup of pasta cooking water before draining.
- Immediately add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the bacon grease and garlic.
- Place the skillet back on the stove over very low heat. Add the beaten egg and continuously whisk vigorously for 2-3 minutes, or until the egg is cooked through and creates a creamy sauce, gradually incorporating some of the reserved pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce. The sauce should be thick but not dry.
- Stir in the crumbled bacon and season generously with salt and pepper. If using, stir in Pecorino Romano cheese.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the perfect creamy carbonara.
