What usually happens is that when I pour the hot water over the egg w/ cheese paste thing, the WHOLE DAMN THING BECOMES OMELETTE SOAKED IN WATER!!!
Any italian chefs can help me on this? I really want some carbonara! QQ T_T

I'm not one hundred percent sure, (I took a cooking class in Sicily, Italy, when I lived there, but that was over two years ago) but if I remember the cream is essential to add some "thickness" to the sauce in addition to the eggs and a bit of cheese. Also, I have no idea why you're using hot water in your recipe except for the obvious reason of cooking your pasta. | ||

Normally what I do is add a raw beaten egg onto the pasta after I've drained it and added it to the pan with bacon etc. Turn the heat off and add the egg, or even put it in a bowl and add the raw egg. The latent heat will cook the egg so u don't have to worry. Then plate it and add cheese on top. Mixing the cheese/egg and adding it at the end (after heat is off) works as well. | ||

Everytime I make Carbonara, I usually use Milk Cream, instread of eggs or w/e. it works best, and it mixes better with the whole stuff. This sauce fucking rules btw. | ||

Fry your bacon/pancetta in a pan until crispy, add your minced garlic and/or shallots and cook for 30 seconds, kill the heat and take the pan off the stove, add the just-cooked, drained pasta, toss to coat the pasta in the bacon grease, let cool for a good minute, stir in a mixture of beaten egg and parmesan cheese, add a bit of reserved, starchy pasta water to make the sauce silky smooth, and finish with fresh Italian parsley, lots of black pepper, and a pinch of salt. No cream. Never cream. | ||
