THE BEST CARBONARA
Now this is our idea of comfort food. Creamy and rich, it's the quintessential dish for a chilly evening. We like to splurge every once in a while and add a knob of butter to the cheesy egg sauce just to round it out. We've left that option up to you, however. Either way, we can't think of a more classic or satisfying pasta dish.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
- Whisk together the eggs, yolks, Parmesan, Pecorino, pepper and butter if using in a large bowl until well combined.
- Add the pasta and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain the pasta.
- Meanwhile, cook the pancetta in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 8 minutes. Add the spaghetti and half the reserved pasta cooking water to the skillet and toss to combine.
- Add the egg mixture and toss to coat. Cook, tossing continuously to avoid scrambling the eggs, until the sauce is creamy, thinning it with the remaining pasta water if it becomes too thick (it should be saucy but not watery), about 1 minute.
- Divide the pasta among plates and sprinkle with more grated Parmesan.

Steps:
- Bring 6 quarts of water to boil in a large pot, and add 2 tablespoons salts.
- Meanwhile, combine the olive oil and pancetta in a 12- to 14-inch sauté pan set over medium heat, and cook until the pancetta has rendered its fat and is crispy and golden. Remove from the heat and set aside (do not drain the fat).
- Cook the spaghetti in the boiling water until just al dente. Scoop out ¼ cup of the pasta cooking water and set aside. Drain the pasta.
- Add the reserved pasta water to the pan with the pancetta, then toss in the pasta and heat, shaking the pan, for 1 minute. Remove from the heat, add 1 cup of the Parmigiano, the egg whites, and pepper to taste, and toss until thoroughly mixed.
- Divide the pasta among four warmed serving bowls. Make a nest in the center of each one, and gently drop an egg yolk into each nest. Season the egg yolks with more pepper and sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup Parmigiano over the top. Serve immediately.
CARBONARA (GUANCIALE, EGG, AND PECORINO ROMANO)
Use the best, freshest eggs you can find, and don't even think of making this dish with eggs from stressed-out battery chickens. You can taste the difference. If you can find real guanciale, so much the better. Once the eggs have been added to the pasta, do not let the pan touch the heat directly or you will wind up with scrambled eggs.

Steps:
- Put the guanciale and oil in a large skillet. Sauté over medium heat until the edges of the guanciale pieces are just turning brown, about 2 minutes. Don't let it get too crisp. Set the pan and its contents aside but keep warm.
- Bring 5 quarts (5 liters) of water to a boil in an 8-quart (8-liter) pot over high heat. When the water boils, add 3 tablespoons kosher salt, then add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente.
- While the pasta is cooking, break the eggs into a small bowl and add all the cheese and a generous grinding of pepper. Whisk gently until the mixture is smooth.
- Drain the pasta (reserving and keeping warm a cup of its water) and put it in the skillet with the guanciale over low heat. Toss quickly to mix well.
- Holding the skillet slightly above but not touching the burner, pour the egg and cheese mixture in a stream into the pasta. Now, if you have the skill, toss the pasta with a deft movement of the wrist to blend all the contents of the pan. If you don't, remove the pan from the heat and mix quickly with two wooden spoons. If you have a warm spot, such as a food warmer or even over a pilot light, rest the pan there while you work.
- Whatever you do, work fast or the pasta will get cold and the eggs will stay raw and runny. Ideally the heat of the pasta will cook the egg just enough, and the sauce should be creamy. You can mix in a tiny bit of the reserved water to smooth things out, but you probably won't need to.
- Transfer to individual heated bowls or plates and serve instantaneously.
RICK STEIN'S SPAGHETTI ALLA CARBONARA
Wow. Saw this last night on his new TV programme and had to try it. So simple and so tasty! I had to make a couple of substitutions because we can't get everything here in Andorra. Getting a large piece of pancetta would have been challenging, so I replaced with smoked bacon lardons which are freely available. Also, pecorino? The Andorran lady looked at me as if I was mad, and what's wrong with a nice bit of Catalan manchego? I'm sorry, but I replaced it with parmeggiano! Remember you should always add your pasta to the sauce, not the other way around, so make sure you use a big deep frying pan.

Steps:
- Cook the pasta in salted boiling water until al dente.
- Meanwhile, cut the pancetta into lardons (little chunky strips about 6mm wide).
- Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat, add the oil and pancetta. Stir until golden.
- Add the garlic and parsley, heat for a few more seconds then remove from the heat.
- Drain the spaghetti well, retaining a ladle-full of the cooking water, and add the pasta to the frying pan.
- Mix well and add the water to create a bit of a sauce, then stir in the beaten eggs and half the cheese. Toss together.
- The heat of the pasta will cook the eggs sufficiently to make them creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve with the remaining cheese sprinkled on top.
