Zucchini 'Pasta' Carbonara
Zoodles can be bought at the supermarket if you don’t have a spiraliser at home. They make for a high-fibre and nutrient-packed alternative to pasta.
Method
Step 1
Whisk the cream and egg yolk together in a small bowl, then season with black pepper.
Step 2
In a frying pan, add the olive oil (approx. 2 tsp) and cook bacon for 1-2 minutes on either side over a high heat, or until cooked through. Set aside, then slice into small pieces.
Step 3
Lower the heat to medium and cook your onion for 1-2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for a further 30 seconds.
Step 3
Add the spiralised zucchini and cook for a 1-2 minutes, then pour in the egg-and-cream mixture as well as the parmesan. Stir through and cook for a further 2-3 minutes until the sauce is heated through, adding the bacon for the last minute.
Step 4
Transfer to a serving bowl, season, and enjoy.
