Filipino style Carbonara


Yummy carbonara!! Another way to enjoy spagetti!! It is easy to make. You just have to prepare the following ingredients:

1 kg pasta (spaghetti noodles)
butter (at least 2 tablespoons)
button mushroom (sliced)
2 cans of all purpose cream
evaporated milk
1/4 kg bacon (sliced into squares)
1/4 kg ham (sliced into squares)
4 beaten eggs
grated cheddar cheese
garlic
onions
salt
black pepper

How to cook

For the sauce, heat the pan on a low flame. Melt the butter in the pan. Put the garlic and onion. Add the mushroom slices and cook until tender. Mix in  the evaporated milk and the all purpose cream. Stir occasionally. Wait for the mixture to boil, then add the eggs. Continue stirring until the mixture is to the desired thickness of your carbonara sauce. Add salt to taste.

For the pasta, boil first two liter of water in a large pasta bowl  wait for it to boil, then add a bit of salt. Carefully add the noodles and stir every now and then to keep the noodles from sticking in the pan. The pasta is cooked if no white shows in the core of a noodle. The noodle must not be too soft so try not to overcook the pasta

place the cooked noodles on a plate. Add carbonara sauce. Sprinkle bacon, ham and cheese. And there you have a carbonara pasta dish!
