My Cooking: Penne Carbonara

At university in Sheffield, I cook most of my meals because it’s a lot cheaper, and tends to be healthier. Pasta is a dish that can be very expensive when you order out, but it can actually be quite simple to make!

Proudly presenting, my homecooked penne carbonara!

I adapted my recipe from the one on BBC Food:

I used grana padano because Tesco ran out of parmesan 😔 and ham instead of pancetta.

After I separated the yolks and whites for 3 eggs

I grated the grana padano with a fork because I did not have a grater – it was tough work but still looked and tasted good!

Cream sauce

3 yolks, cheese, 110ml double cream, salt and pepper for the sauce – so easy, so delish 😋

Also, I cooked this using my trusty Russell Hobbs rice cooker!
