For an even richer flavor, use guanciale instead of bacon. Be sure to stir the egg yolk mixture quickly and continuously to prevent the eggs from scrambling. Adjust the amount of Parmesan cheese to your preference. If you don't have asparagus, peas or mushrooms make excellent substitutes. Freshly ground black pepper is essential for the authentic carbonara flavor.

Follow The Directions
01
StepBring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the gluten-free spaghetti and cook according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining. Set the pasta aside. (Prep time: 2 minutes, Cook time: 8-10 minutes)
02
StepWhile the pasta is cooking, heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped bacon and onion and sauté until the bacon is crispy and the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the asparagus and continue to sauté for another 3-4 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper. (Prep time: 3 minutes, Cook time: 8-9 minutes)
03
StepIn a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and Parmesan cheese. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. (Prep time: 2 minutes)
04
StepAdd the cooked pasta to the skillet with the bacon and asparagus mixture. Toss to combine and warm through. Remove the skillet from the heat. (Prep time: 1 minute, Cook time: 1-2 minutes)
05
StepPour the egg yolk mixture over the pasta and stir vigorously and continuously until the yolks thicken and create a creamy sauce that coats the spaghetti. If the sauce is too thick, add a tablespoon or two of the reserved pasta water at a time until you reach your desired consistency. (Prep time: 1 minute, Cook time: 2-3 minutes)
06
StepServe immediately, garnished with extra grated Parmesan cheese and a generous grind of black pepper.
