Spaghetti alla Carbonara, as shared on American TV

Spaghetti alla Carbonara

Spaghetti alla Carbonara is a classic Roman recipe that is fast and relatively simple. In my Italian cooking classes over the years, I have found many cooking guests are pleasantly surprised at how easy this delicious recipe is to replicate at home. 
Here are some of my tips, to ensure the success of this traditional dish, as revealed by Carol, one of our valued ex-cooking guests on American Fox2TV. 

Thank you Carol for spreading the word.

Aglio, olio e peperoncino - Chef Guido's Classic Roman Pasta Dishes

Aglio, olio e peperoncino

This is the quickest pasta sauce to make and it tastes delicious. This is the classic Roman pasta dish I make for my family when I use what ingredients we already have in the cupboard. No need to go and shop, plus it is very fast to make. 
You can make it as hot as you like, just add or reduce the chilli you use.

Ingredients (serves 6): extra virgin olive oil, garlic, 2 garlic cloves, fresh chilli.

Method: Fry 2 bruised garlic cloves and a small fresh chilli in olive oil until the garlic is golden brown. Take out the garlic and mix the sauce in with cooked ‘aldente’ pasta. 

(Pasta shapes traditionally used: bucatini, spaghetti)


Dried Pasta: 80-100g per serving

Chef Guido's Tip: "top with a little fresh parsley"
