A sure way to add a new twist to a traditional Carbonara dish is to use Farmers Union Greek Style Yogurt. We especially love this recipe as it uses ingredients that are usually on hand and is great for when you are short on time. At Farmers Union, we understand that it can be hard for mums and dads to work and ensure that their family receives their daily dairy goodness. However, our all natural Australian yogurt Carbonara provides you with a solution. Enjoy the taste of our creamy Greek yogurt whilst enjoying this decadent pasta.
Method
STEP 1
Heat oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add bacon* and garlic. Cook, stirring, for 10 minutes or until bacon* is crispy. Drain on paper towel.
STEP 2
Whisk egg yolks, FUGY and three-quarters of the parmesan together in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
STEP 3
Boil salted water, and cook pasta until al dente. Once pasta is cooked, drain, reserving ¼ cup of pasta water.
STEP 4
Add egg mixture and bacon* to pasta. Season with salt and pepper. Toss over low heat until well combined, add in reserved pasta water to loosen sauce if need be. Serve with remaining parmesan and a dollop of FUGY
