Geen Toppers wel een goeie Nigella Pasta

Geen Toppers wel een goeie Nigella Pasta



Diepe teleurstelling, we zaten er helemaal klaar voor. DT Nigella Lawson pasta en een blikje bubbels. Kom maar door met die Toppers!
Helaas, das pas volgende week. Gelukkig kunnen we nog wel even gokken op de uitslag via dit leuke tooltje. Hoe heten ze eigenlijk in het buitenland? The Toppers?

Om de avond toch nog wat pret te geven, het recept van de DT Pasta:

Ingredients

* 1 pound spaghetti
* 2 cups cubed pancetta rind removed
* 2 teaspoons olive oil
* 1/4 cup dry white wine or vermouth
* 4 eggs
* 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
* 1/4 cup heavy cream
* Freshly ground black pepper
* Freshly ground nutmeg

Directions

Put a large pan of water on to boil for the pasta.

In another large pan that will fit the pasta later, cook the pancetta cubes in the oil until crispy but not crunchy. Pour over the white wine or vermouth and let it bubble away so that, after a few minutes, you have a small amount of salty winey syrup left. Take the pan off the heat.

In a bowl, beat together the eggs, Parmesan, cream, and pepper. Cook the pasta according to the packet instructions, but since you want it kept al dente start checking it 2 minutes before end of the recommended cooking time.

When the pasta is done, remove approximately 1/2 cup of the pasta water before draining. Put the pan with the bacon cubes back on the heat and add the drained pasta, tossing well to coat with the syrupy pancetta. Take the pan off the heat again and add the eggs and cheese mixture, swiftly tossing everything to mix. Thin with pasta water, if needed. Grind over some more pepper and grate over the nutmeg to serve.
