Pro tip
Speed is of the essence when making carbonarra. Adding the eggs to the pasta while it's hot, ensures the eggs cook, creating a super silky sauce.
Before you start
Please wash your hands and rinse all fresh fruits and vegetables prior to cooking.
Instructions
1 Boil spaghetti
Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Once boiling, add the spaghetti and cook for 8-10 min until 'al dente' or cooked to your liking. Drain and reserve a cup of pasta water.
2 Make dressing
Meanwhile, whisk the olive oil, mustard, honey and balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside - this is your dressing.
3 Prep
Wash and roughly chop the cucumber and lettuce. Chop the smoked salmon into small pieces. Whisk the eggs, cream and Grana padano until smooth. Season very generously with black pepper and salt.
4 Toss salad
In a large bowl, toss the cucumber and lettuce in the dressing.
5 Toss spaghetti
Return the drained spaghetti to the pot. Remove the pot from the heat. Add a splash of pasta cooking water, the smoked salmon and the egg-cream mixture to the pot. Mix well until the sauce coats the spaghetti.
6 Serve
Serve the salmon carbonara alongside the salad while hot.
