I made pasta carbonara when I was still in Tokyo and before my marriage, my friend and I decided to make carbonara when I had a sleep over at her apartment. We did well back then but I think I have improved little bit 🥰

1

In a medium size bowl, add all the ingredients of ☆ and mix it well.
2

In a large pan, drizzle olive oil, BEFORE turning on stovetop heat add minced garlic. Then turn on stovetop (low to medium heat) and sauté for three minutes until it’s golden brown. Remove the sautéed garlic from pan and put it aside.
3

In the same pan, add back the oil and put bacon and sauté until it gets crispy. Discard excess oil. Add crushed red pepper and sauté for one minute and turn off the heat and let it rest.
4

In a large pot, boil pasta in salted water. Finished it al dente. Save 1 cup pasta water.
5

In the same pot you boiled the pasta, on low heat, mix the pasta and sautéed bacon very well. Add 1/4 pasta water and mix well. Add half of the egg sauce and mix them continuously. Add another 1/4 pasta water and the rest of the egg sauce. Your goal is to finish with creamy textures (not crumbly). Add more pasta water if it’s needed.
