This must be the definitive carbonara sauce recipe. Really good. The portions are a bit strange. The recipe says it serves 6, using 20oz of pasta. I made a half recipe for a main for two people, but used only 6oz pasta rather than 10oz. That pasta amount was fine, but the sauce might have been a bit skimpy. But it tasted yummy.
