mins.Ingredients
| 2 boxes (340 g each) | Italpasta Gluten Free Spaghetti |
| 6 oz (175 g) | thickly sliced pancetta, diced |
| 1 | small onion, diced |
| 2 | cloves garlic, minced |
| 5 | egg yolks |
| 1 cup (250 mL) | 18% light cream |
| 3/4 cup (175 mL) | grated Parmesan cheese |
| 1/2 tsp (2 mL) | each salt and cracked pepper |
| 1 cup (250 mL) | peas, thawed or blanched |
| 2 tbsp (30 mL) | chopped fresh chives |
Steps
- In large skillet set over medium heat, cook pancetta for 5 to 7 minutes or until crisp; transfer to paper towel–lined plate. Remove all but 1 tbsp (15 mL) drippings from pan; cook onion and garlic over medium heat for about 6 minutes or until softened. In small bowl, whisk together egg yolks, cream, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, cook Gluten Free Spaghetti according to package directions; drain, reserving 1 1/4 cups (300 mL) pasta water. Return pasta to pot; toss immediately with egg mixture, pancetta, onion and garlic mixture and peas, adding reserved cooking water as needed until pasta is well coated. Sprinkle with chives.
Tip: Substitute bacon for pancetta if desired.
Tip: For a vegetarian version, substitute 1/4 cup (60 mL) chopped sun-dried tomatoes for pancetta.
