SPAGHETTI ALLA CARBONARA: THE TRADITIONAL ITALIAN RECIPE
This dish was created in the Lazio region (the area around Rome) in the middle of the 20th century, after World War Two. We don't use cream, milk, garlic, onions or other strange ingredients; we use only guanciale, eggs, pecorino cheese, and lots of black pepper (carbonaro is the Italian for coal miner). This isn't the Italian-American version, it's the real, creamy carbonara and it comes right from Italy, where I live. Buon appetito.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add guanciale (see Cook's Note). Cook, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crispy, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and drain on paper towels.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, about 9 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Let cool, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
- Whisk eggs, half of the Pecorino Romano cheese, and some black pepper in a bowl until smooth and creamy. Pour egg mixture over pasta, stirring quickly, until creamy and slightly cooled. Stir in guanciale. Top with remaining Pecorino Romano cheese and more black pepper.

Steps:
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook spaghetti pasta until al dente. Drain well. Toss with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and set aside.
- Meanwhile in a large skillet, cook chopped bacon until slightly crisp; remove and drain onto paper towels. Reserve 2 tablespoons of bacon fat; add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, and heat in reused large skillet. Add chopped onion, and cook over medium heat until onion is translucent. Add minced garlic, and cook 1 minute more. Add wine if desired; cook one more minute.
- Return cooked bacon to pan; add cooked and drained spaghetti. Toss to coat and heat through, adding more olive oil if it seems dry or is sticking together. Add beaten eggs and cook, tossing constantly with tongs or large fork until eggs are barely set. Quickly add 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, and toss again. Add salt and pepper to taste (remember that bacon and Parmesan are very salty).
- Serve immediately with chopped parsley sprinkled on top, and extra Parmesan cheese at table.

RICK STEIN'S SPAGHETTI ALLA CARBONARA
Wow. Saw this last night on his new TV programme and had to try it. So simple and so tasty! I had to make a couple of substitutions because we can't get everything here in Andorra. Getting a large piece of pancetta would have been challenging, so I replaced with smoked bacon lardons which are freely available. Also, pecorino? The Andorran lady looked at me as if I was mad, and what's wrong with a nice bit of Catalan manchego? I'm sorry, but I replaced it with parmeggiano! Remember you should always add your pasta to the sauce, not the other way around, so make sure you use a big deep frying pan.

Steps:
- Cook the pasta in salted boiling water until al dente.
- Meanwhile, cut the pancetta into lardons (little chunky strips about 6mm wide).
- Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat, add the oil and pancetta. Stir until golden.
- Add the garlic and parsley, heat for a few more seconds then remove from the heat.
- Drain the spaghetti well, retaining a ladle-full of the cooking water, and add the pasta to the frying pan.
- Mix well and add the water to create a bit of a sauce, then stir in the beaten eggs and half the cheese. Toss together.
- The heat of the pasta will cook the eggs sufficiently to make them creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve with the remaining cheese sprinkled on top.
