Pasta Carbonara with Bread Crumbs

Yummy! Im eating it now, and im impressed! Must share. This recipe is from a bo0k i recently obtained called "The everything no trans fat co0kbo0k!" Its really nice. The garlicky bread crumbs substitute for the bacon that carbonaras ask for.. so its totally vegetarian friendly. Its super easy and quick and so delicious!

You'll need to grab,

1 tblspn Olive Oil
1 tblspn Butter

4 cloves garlic ( or 1 clove of elephant garlic thats what i used)

3 slices of bread crumbled (it says white but i used mountain grain :)
1 pound Spaghetti pasta ( i used fettuchini or however u spell it)
4 eggies
1 cup heavy cream (whipping cream)

1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese

1/4 white pepper ( i used black whatever)
2 tblspns chopped fresh parsley

What u need to do!

1) Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, Meanwhile, in a large saucepan heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Mince the garlic and add. Co0k and stir until garlic is fragrant (bout 3 mins). Add bread crumbs. Co0k and stir over medium heat for 6-9 mins until bread crumbs are toasted.

Remove crumbs from pan and place on plate. Dont wash the pan yet.

2) Add pasta to boiling water and co0k until al dente according to package. Meanwhile in a medium bowl combine eggs, cream, cheese and pepper and mix well.

3) Drain pasta and place in pan that was used for the breadcrumbs; place over medium heat and add the egg mixture all at once, QUICKLY toss with tongs for 2 mins ( i wasnt quick.. and my eggs scrambled a tiny bit haha but its still so yummy) Add half the breadcrumbs and toss. Place on a serving plate and sprinkle with remaining breadcrumbs and chopped parsley; serve right away.

*I should have used spaghetti, the fettuchini soaked up alot of the sauce so use spag... But even with that, on my first try its DELICIOUS So have fun with it, its simple and fast ! Enjoy!
