Carbonara

Pasta Carbonara is one dish that's hard to mess up. With it's one primary ingredient - bacon - how can you go wrong? Chop the bacon in small pieces & throw into a warm pan.
Cook until brown & slightly crispy. It's okay if not all the bacon pieces are crisp because they will get mixed up with the sauce later on anyway. Perfect if you only have a few ingredients in your fridge - some milk, eggs & cheese are the basics you need. Good to serve with some green salad with vinaigrette. The acidity of the vinaigrette is a perfect match to the richness of the creamy carbonara sauce. Topping it with extras like fresh chopped basil & slivers of parmesan cheese adds to the texture & contrast of the dish.
