Italian mass recipe to carbonara

The classic carbonara mass is a jewel of Italian cuisine.Originally from Rome, this recipe combines simplicity with intense flavor.It is made essentially with Pancetta or Guanciale, Roman Pecorino Cheese (being able to use Parmesan), eggs and black pepper.Here, I will teach you how to make a traditional and delicious version that brings the authenticity and taste you expect from a true carbonara.

#### Ingredients:
- 400g of spaghetti or other long mass of your choice
- 150g of Pancetta or Guanciale, cut into small cubes
- 2 peeled garlic cloves (optional, for those who like a light touch of garlic)
- 4 large eggs
- 100g of Roman pecorino cheese or finely grated Parmesan, and a little more to serve
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Water to cook the pasta
- olive oil (if necessary)

#### Preparation Mode:
1. ** Preparing Pancetta/Guanciale **:
- In a large skillet, add the Pancetta or Guanciale cubes.Fry over medium heat until crispy and gold.If it is using garlic, add it integer just to perfume the fat and remove before adding the other ingredients.Reserve fat and fried cubes.

2. ** Cooking the pasta **:
- Meanwhile, put a large pan of salt water to boil.Add the pasta and cook until al dente, following the packaging instructions.Reserve about a cup of cooking water and drain the dough.

3. ** Preparing the sauce **:
- In a bowl, beat the eggs and mix the grated cheese.Season with black pepper to taste.This mixture must be ready so you can act quickly as soon as the dough is cooked.

4. ** Mounting the dish **:
- Add the hot dough back to the frying pan with Pancetta or Guanciale (with a little of your fat).Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the dough.Use tweezers to move quickly, wrapping the pasta with the creamy sauce formed by the heat of the eggs that cook slightly.If necessary, add some of the reserved cooking water to achieve creamy consistency.

5. ** Hitting the flavors and serving **:
- Adjust salt, if necessary, and add a generous portion of black pepper.Serve immediately, sprinkled with more grated cheese.

#### Tips:
- Do not add traditional carbonara sour cream, as this alters the authenticity and classic taste of the dish.
- The quality of the ingredients is key, especially cheese and Pancetta/Guanciale.Opt for high quality products for a better result.
