ABOUT THE DISH
Our decadent take on the classic carbonara includes salty pancetta, eggs and delicious Italian cheese. Carbonara is a dish of great significance in the history of modern Italy, first appearing in the 1950s when it was served to American GIs following the Allied liberation of Rome. We serve our carbonara with strands of spaghetti, perfect for catching every last morsel of sauce. Follow the instructions we include with your kit and enjoy a 5* pasta dish in 5 minutes.

Storage
STORAGE: Like all fresh products, our artisan pasta has a limited shelf life. Keep chilled & consume by the date indicated above.
FREEZING: Alternatively freeze before use by date. The pasta can be cooked from frozen, for 4-5 minutes. The carbonara and pancetta need to be defrosted overnight in the fridge.
Preparation and Usage
1. Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Salt the water (around ½tbsp per litre).
2. Cook the pasta in the boiling water for 2 minutes. Stir regularly to prevent sticking.
3. Whilst the pasta cooks, pan-fry the pancetta in a frying pan on a medium-high heat until crispy.
4. Lower the heat on the pancetta pan and add the carbonara sauce. Take care to ensure that all of the sauce is squeezed from the pouch.
5. Add 75 ml (5tbsp) of the pasta cooking water, stir well to combine with the sauce and heat until steaming, then turn off the heat.
6. Lift the pasta out of the water and add to the sauce. Toss together so that the sauce coats the pasta.
7. Serve topped with the grated cheese. Buon appetito!

Why change the recipe?
Pasta in this kit is NOT spaghetti. And sauce now creates a sticky mess. No longer a premium product.
Nice, but ...
small portions, you will need to serve something else with it. Very little pancetta and it feels like the remarkably thick spaghetti needs more than the instructed 8 mins. Bought at half price in a flash sale, but at full price, I would rather grate the cheese and mix some eggs myself - carbonara is hardly a difficult or time consuming dish. #butNiceBacon
Great product
Very convenient and easy to cook. Delicious carbonara!
Disgusting!
The noodles were very thick and weird. The meat was all fat. The sauce was absolutely vile when mixed with pasta water per the instructions. Authentic carbonara is just noooo. Needs milk or cream. Much prefer the M&S vintage cheddar pouch with linguine.
Decadent
Pasta Evangelist meals are always something special. It just seems like love and care has been put into every element from conception, to packaging, ease of execution and the evident quality of the ingredients. This meal is no exception, elevating this simple dish into something very special.
lovely creamy sauce but pasta too chunky
lovely creamy carbonara sauce, pasta tasted fresh but I personally like a thinner spaghetti it was quite chunky. Good flavour on the pancetta
