HOW TO COOK SPAGHETTI ALLA CARBONARA

HOW TO COOK SPAGHETTI ALLA CARBONARA



Pasta carbonara is one kind of Spaghetti. Others call it “white spaghetti”.  It is also an Italian spaghetti dish which I think was created in the middle of 20th century. This is one of many ways how to cook spaghetti. Although it is an Italian dish, I had my first Spaghetti Carbonara in the Philippines. I had it in a local restaurant and I asked the waiter if he knows how to cook it and he said it was just like cooking the spaghetti I uesd to know. I was really amazed of its taste and I found myself thinking about how to cook it. I look it up in the internet and I found not too many recipes of it. I picked the one which I think was the simplest to cook and I made some changes. Here is how to cook my version of Spaghetti Caronara:
