wykonanie

  • Prepare the ingredients: Dice the onion, cut the bacon into small cubes, cut the ham into larger cubes, and finely chop the garlic. Shred the cheese using the large holes of a box grater.
    1 medium onion, 2 ounces (60g) thick-cut bacon, 4 cloves garlic, 7 ounces (200g) ham, 6 ounces (170g) Emmentaler/Swiss cheese or Gouda
  • Cook the pasta one minute less than the package instructions indicate.
    1 lb (450g) short pasta
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and sour cream. Stir in the cheese and nutmeg, then season with salt and pepper.
    4 large eggs, 3/4 cup (180ml) heavy cream, 1/4 cup (60ml) sour cream, ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • Heat clarified butter (or butter and oil) in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and bacon, and cook for a couple of minutes until the onion is soft and golden and the bacon is lightly browned with the fat rendered. Note: If you prefer crispy bacon, you can cook it separately, transfer it to a plate, and then cook the onion—but I find this unnecessary and not traditional for this recipe.
    2 tablespoons clarified butter
  • Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  • Add the ham and cook for a couple of minutes.
  • Drain the pasta and add it to the pan. Pour in the egg-cream mixture. Cook over low heat for a few minutes, stirring constantly, until everything is well combined and the egg in the sauce is set. (In this recipe, the sauce won't be creamy and silky like in Carbonara—it’s characteristic for the eggs to be more set and firm, which is how it’s traditionally prepared.)
  • Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Garnish with plenty of chopped chives.
  • Enjoy!
