Omitted the egg whites using the yolks for a richer taste and consistensy; thinned sauce w/pasta water. Also fried onion in bacon fat until transluscent; mixed all & feasted by all. Delish!

I haven't tried making this yet; from the picture of the sauce, I don't understand where the red comes from as there are no tomatoes in the recipe. Any idea? Don't think bacon would make a sauce red.

This was soooo easy to make. I didn't separate the eggs and used prosciutto instead of bacon. It was a little like scrambled eggs and bacon with pasta which was kind of weird for me but still pretty tasty. I will probably stick with my usual carbonara recipe from now on though.

I tweaked it just a bit - didn't bother separating out the yolk, but just scrambled it in with the whites. Otherwise, no change to the recipe. It turned out incredibly good - I'd definitely make this again!
