Spaghetti Carbonara!

I am really craving a spaghetti carbonara!! We were going to order some food in tonight and I’ve seen that our local Prezzo has a delivery option and I really want one! I’m just a little bit worried as carbonara sauce is made from raw egg. As the sauce cooks with the pasta and it would be heated, would that be OK? Or is it safer to just avoid and maybe make my own and I know what eats have been used etc? I am really trying not to be someone that worries about everything I eat but I’m not doing too great with that today as you can tell lol. Xx

Personally I’d make my own with top quality lion stamped eggs.

Also reckon carbonara is best straight off the stove rather than a bit cold and congealed after being delivered!

Ring and ask if they use red lion stamped eggs, if so then you’ll be fine to eat it.

Do restaurants like that actually make it properly? I thought they just used cream (gross)

If they do make it properly it'll be a congealed lump of stooge by the time it gets to you!

I'd be stunned if a takeaway carbonara were made with raw egg but you can call them to check.

I'm 20 weeks and I had carbonara from Prezzo last week it was lush

It’s fine, I’ve had their carbonara a few times this pregnancy and it’s soooooo good.

the jamie oliver carbonara (genarros recipe) is also amazing. agree just make your own for a few £!

sunshinecitrus1 · 15/01/2021 09:47

Thanks @wimbler I will try that out as well. You’re right, so much cheaper to do and helps my craving! Win win! Grin

@sunshinecitrus1
Ahhhh glad you enjoyed it !
I found the recipe originally on the bbcgood food guide but it’s also in an old Italian cookbook written by old Italian ladies so I think it’s an original Italian recipe !! X
