Original carbonara with vegetarian option🤤.

Bring water to boil.

Cut the bacon or mushrooms (depending on whether you are vegetarian or not) into cubes and cook in the pan.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix the cheese and egg mixture with a little pepper (without salt, as Pecorino Romano is very salty).

Cook the pasta, rather al dente and, before draining it, take a little of the cooking water in case you need to correct the texture. Drain it quickly.

When you have drained it, add it to the bowl, stirring well so that the cheese melts and becomes a cream.

If you see that it is not very creamy, add cooking water until necessary.

Add the mushrooms/bacon and stir.
