Spaghetti Carbonara with Asparagus
Preparation
Thinly slice asparagus on diagonal.
In bowl, beat together eggs, cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Set aside.
In large pot of boiling salted water, cook spaghetti until al dente. Reserving 1/3 cup/75 mL of the water, drain. Return spaghetti and reserved water to pot.
Meanwhile, in large skillet, heat oil over medium heat; fry garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add pancetta; fry for 2 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and add asparagus; cook, stirring occasionally and adding a little of the spaghetti water to moisten, until tender, about 5 minutes.
Scrape over spaghetti; mix well. Turn off heat. Stir egg mixture into spaghetti mixture until sauce coats spaghetti, 30 to 60 seconds.
