Pasta Alla Carbonara Recipe

	55to64 / All my dishes 1 year, 3 months ago This is a traditional method for making pasta alla carbonara. Tradition dictates pancetta and parmesan. However, I've substituted bacon and romano cheese with much success. Another recipe not for those on a diet, but great for company. Very indulgent Prep:15m Cook:15m Servings:6	55to64

Does this look good? Yeah! / Nope
