The sauce came out a bit thick, but great flavor.

This was wonderful. I made the sauce up before and put it in the frig, so it was easier. Had to add more cream to thin it when I took it out but it worked fine. I would add some crushed red pepper on the top next time but I will make this again and again!! It's perfect for a small dinner party with a salad.

Very easy and delicious. I was concerned about the eggs, but the sauce came out very creamy.
Good but....

I thought this was heavy because of the amount of eggs used. Mario and Emeril have great recipes which use no more than 3 whole eggs. In my opinion it needs to use all the egg product. Just my opinion.

Mel from Seattle, this is a 30 minute show. What do you expect? If you like the original Carbonara then make it. Most of these shows have a twist to all reciepes. I think Paula is fabulous even if she does use alot of eggs and butter!

THis is a fantastic recipe! It is so easy and flavorful. I like to substitute ham for the bacon, too. Add some parsley or oregano for a little variation in color. Great side dish without the meat as well. Teenagers love it,too. Thanks, Paula!
Quick and yummy

This was a very quick and easy recipe to make. It was creamy, smooth, tasty, and filling. I didn't have any heavy cream, so I used 2% milk and just a little of the pasta water instead. It still turned out great. Thank you Paula!
Not Real Carborara

This might be okay if you like a really thick, sticky, fatty pasta sauce, but it is absolutely nothing like a real Italian carbonara. The combination of five egg yolks (!) and the cream result in a paste-like substance (as you can see on the show)--not at all what a carbonara should be. Traditional carbonara uses whole eggs (and not more than 3 or 4 for 1 1b. of pasta), garlic instead of onion (or neither), a smaller amount of pancetta, and no cream (though many American recipes add it). Try the real thing, you'll like it!

This is delicious! My whole family liked it and they are young, picky eaters. It taste like a casserole that has baked and all the flavors just gel together. Not a drop left over.
Great

I loved this recipe and so did my fiance who is very picky. Lots of flavor and very rich. The bacon and onion were a great combination and the parm rounded out the amazing flavor. Will make again!
You have to try this

If you like a creamier sauce, increase the cream to 1 cup and knock the cheese down to 1/4 cup. (This really works best if you let the cream come to room temp before you begin) The flavor of the carbonara was fabulous, but it was a bit too dry for my family's taste
