So I made my kids the "Simplee Carbonara" last Saturday. It tasted just like those Italian Restaurant (haha trust me?)
You might want to give it a try.. Ingredients are very simple and nothing fancy about the cooking steps as well. Less than 30 minutes from preparation and cooking.
Ingredients
Pasta
100gm Angel Hair Spaghetti (cooked and drained)
2 cup Milk
3 tbsp Butter
2 tbsp Flour
Some chopped garlic
Dash salt to taste
Some Rosemary (dried)
2 Slices of Cheddar Cheese
Patty
200gm Minced Meat (marinate with soya)
4 tbsp Bread Crumbs
1 tbsp Corn Starch
1 egg beaten (used half)
Methods for Pasta
- Cooked spaghetti in boiling salt water for 8-10 minutes depends on the type of pasta you are using, I added a little cooking oil so it won't stick together when drained.
- Use a pan, warm it with low flame, add in butter. When butter is melted, add in flour to make roux. Control the flame, do not turn to high flame, this might cause the milk to vaporised fast. Add in milk, stir well till smooth and not lumpy, add the cheddar cheese stir till cheese is melted. Add in salt and rosemary to taste. Lastly, add in Angel Hair and mix well. Serve hot.
Methods for Patty
- Mix all ingredients.
- Use a pan, warm it with low flame, add in cooking oil. Scoop meat with ice cream scoop or any big spoon. Place patty in the middle of the pan, slightly press down the meat to make a flat round patty. Fried for 3 minutes each side. Serve with pasta.
Angel Hair Carbonara. Kids preferred Angel Hair, because it's fine and soft. |
