How To Make creamy bacon pasta carbonara
-
Step 1Cook your noodles per package directions. Beat the eggs, cream, Parmesan, parsley, salt, pepper, garlic salt and the red pepper together in a bowl. I just used a fork. -
Step 2Fry the bacon until crisp, then crumble and set aside.
-
Step 3With 1 -2 Tbsp. bacon grease, saute the onion. garlic and the mushrooms until the onions are translucent.
-
Step 4Drain the pasta and while still warm, add to the onions,garlic and mushrooms. Pour cream mixture into the pasta, and stir over low heat for one to two minutes. Make sure you cook on low, so as not to have scrambled eggs.
