Classic spaghetti carbonara recipe

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

Add the spaghetti to a large pan of lightly salted boiling water and cook for 10 minutes or until tender and al dente when tested with a fork.

Step 2

While the spaghetti is cooking, squirt a large non-stick frying pan with olive oil spray. Add the bacon and cook over a high heat until it starts to crisp. Add the garlic and cook for another minute. Turn off the heat and set the pan aside.

Step 3

In a bowl, lightly beat together the eggs, creme fraiche and parmesan. Season to taste.

Step 4

As soon as the spaghetti is cooked, drain into a colander then tip it straight back into the pan. Reheat the bacon and garlic for a few minutes and add the spaghetti with the egg mixture and parsley, if using. Toss together and serve immediately - the heat from the pasta will gently cook the egg.
