Instructions

Thanks for sharing this recipe on the methods for cooking the carbonara. It looks quite simple. I like carbonara, but often find the easiest way….by using canned/ready made sauce :-p

Chorizo and Fettucine are a winning combination. I too love the use of exotic mushrooms in pasta and (there’s a secret-or not so secret ingredient) in Heston Blumenthals (in search of perfection) where he uses the shiitake mushrooms in his Bolognese for the umami. So I know that you’re definitely onto a good thing!
Looks tasty! I cook the same way, anything is fair game for fried rice or pasta!
