  • 0.67 Slices Bacon
  • 0.33 tablespoon Butter
  • 0.33 cloves Cloves Garlic, Minced

Directions: Smoked Gouda Carbonara Recipe

Cooking Directions

  • STEP 1.Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente.
  • STEP 2.In a large skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside.
  • STEP 3.In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
  • STEP 4.In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, grated smoked Gouda cheese, and black pepper.
  • STEP 5.Drain the cooked pasta and add it to the skillet with the melted butter and garlic. Toss to coat the pasta.
  • STEP 6.Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the pasta and toss quickly to combine. The heat from the pasta will cook the eggs and create a creamy sauce.
  • STEP 7.Crumble the cooked bacon and sprinkle it over the pasta. Toss again to distribute the bacon evenly.
  • STEP 8.Serve the Smoked Gouda Carbonara immediately, garnished with additional grated Gouda cheese and chopped parsley, if desired.

Cooking Tips

  • Be careful not to overcook the pasta, as it will continue to cook slightly when combined with the hot sauce.
  • Make sure to toss the pasta quickly with the egg and cheese mixture to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
  • For a vegetarian version, you can omit the bacon and add sautéed mushrooms or roasted vegetables for extra flavor and texture.

Storage and Serving

  • Smoked Gouda Carbonara is best served immediately while it is still hot and creamy.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • To reheat, gently warm the carbonara in a skillet over low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent the sauce from separating.
