Chorizo carbonara: Quick and crispy twist on a classic in 17 minutes.
Ingredients:
  • 375g dried pappardelle pasta
  • 2 chorizo, finely chopped
  • 20.00 ml finely chopped fresh thyme leaves
  • 3 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 82.50 ml light thickened cream for cooking
  • 125.00 ml finely grated parmesan, plus extra to serve
  • 62.50 ml finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
Instructions:
  • Prepare the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Save ½ cup of the cooking liquid. Put the pasta back into the pot on low heat.
  • Heat a medium frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook chorizo, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until nice and brown. Add in the thyme, then take the pan off the heat.
