Nobody else here is moronic enough to call pasta noodles I don't think, oh bombastic one.

Maybe you Americans can't master the difference, but I can assure you that doesn't go for the rest of the world.

So I did. (This was the reason I 'fessed up to using beef bacon becau a e despite my best attempts to hide the halal food sign I knew someone would spot signs from the pic that I missed, such as the type of pasta I used!)

Do you ever make any sense, rs?

Because the cheaper copies aren't aged they tend not to be so 'powdery' when grated.

Probably, except at 80,000 IDR per packet it wasnt that cheap, howevwr, miles better than that Kraft powder stuff.

Agreed.

Some of the ingredients on the side of these 'parmesan type product' things look more like what you'd remove paint with than something you'd want to eat.

You're not going to spin the Marco Polo story are you?

Bit like Santa being a fat old bearded guy wearing a red suit that one...

^ I think "Willy's Hey Pesto!" has a ring to it.

It's quite easy, cook up your onions garlic bacon etc., let that cool down, cook your pasta, i like penne. In a bowl mix up your cream, egg yellows, cheese and the cooled down hot bits. When your pasta is cooked, drain it, take it off the heat and mix in the other bowl, put back on heat to heat up. Making sure not to scramble your eggs, otherwise you have to start again. Add extra cream and cheez and black pepper etc.

Then pour it into the lovely fish dish.

Basta.

Erm, how's that different to mine? Do ya reckon that the addition of wine, chicken and mushroom changes it into not carbonara?

Not even close, mate..
Marco Polo wasn't significant and last in his field.

Try the more important Islamic travelers and explorers a century that found their way throughout Asia and influenced the known world.

I'm always baffled how seemingly intelligent folks haven't a clue about real world history and influence/contributions.

And you can make a really good one with Gorgonzola.

the tough crowd here would probably claim that it's not a real carbonara if you make with Gorgonzola!

Don't think the cheese matters so much, but, I am disappointed you didn't make fresh pasta.

Spaghetti from a box...........Really!

Got a recipe ? Your pie dough worked a treat. (first time I ever made a pie from scratch)

I've tried making pasta once, (Gnocchi) and it was a total fail.

I'm happy to try again, if you can help.
