1
Cook the Pasta
Boil a large pot of salted water. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.
2
Prepare the Bacon and Mushrooms
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped bacon and cook until crispy. Add sliced mushrooms and minced garlic, cooking until the mushrooms are browned and tender.
3
Mix the Sauce
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
4
Combine Pasta and Sauce
Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet with the bacon and mushrooms. Remove from heat and quickly pour the egg mixture over the pasta, tossing to coat. Add reserved pasta water a little at a time until the sauce reaches desired consistency.
5
Serve
Plate the carbonara and garnish with additional Parmesan cheese and freshly ground black pepper.
