**************************************************************************************************

                Cooking has been my way to relieve those boring jaw dropped, eye blank expressions which I would like to call “nga-nga” sessions. Throughout my wait for my license and opportunities, I have made my time quite productive in a way I have learned new things in life, and those new things are what I call food scorching. Haha.

               The silence has fill me in, another “nga-nga” session devoured me unconsciously and finally, I have made a picture in my mind, an amazing picture of a sparkling white spaghetti filled with mushrooms, so tempting. So, I got on my feet, completed my ingredients, and surprisingly I have made Carbonara all by myself for the first time!


With yummy cheese sticks :D


            The best part of this dish is that it has low fat content compared to the original recipe of carbonara which includes bacon. The usage of a whole milk is still saturated fat because of its origin to cows, if you would like to have an affordable, less fat recipe for this phenomenal food, try this!  

Ingredients:
Spaghetti Pasta
McCormick Carbonara Mix ( 1 sachet is equals to 400g of pasta)
Powdered Milk / Low fat milk
Hotdogs (less fat and price compared to bacon)
Mushroom
Basil Leaves
Onions
Garlic


Procedure:
1. Cook the pasta according to manufacturers’ instructions
2. Sauté chopped garlic and onion, followed my cut hotdogs.
3. Add cut mushrooms after the hotdogs are well done.
4. Add 1 cup of milk for every sachet of carbonara mix, mix thoroughly, don’t worry if the carbonara mix won’t be dissolved with milk alone, it will all be liquid once added to the pasta and simmered.
5. Add the pasta to the sauté ingredients, followed by the carbonara mix with milk.
6. Mix evenly; Add basil leaves, let it simmer until it comes into boil.
7.  Be careful not to simmer too long, it tends to get dry.
8. Make your plate presentation and enjoy!

                You will get that perfect taste of this recipe if it is not too dry and the pasta is perfectly cooked. Bon Appetite!
