CABONARA SPAGHETTI


What to eat for today har? Rice, noodle, bread and cereals................. bored with all this already. Wanted to eat something nice and simple - prehaps western. Saw this cabonara mix on the shelf. So, I decided to make myself, hubby and my sister something simple for the day. All I need is just spaghetti (which I have them all the time in my fridge), some black pepper, water or milk and I found some toasted bacon on the fridge. Shiok!!!! Got extra things to go with. Hahaha.

Apa lagi? Start work lah. Boil the water - add some salt and butter in it. You can always put some olive oil instead of butter. When the water is ready put in the spaghetti. Cook for 15 minutes or more. Anyway, it depends on what brand of spaghetti you buy. Read the instruction there.

After that, drain the spaghetti and add some butter in it. Oh ya! This is to avoid the spaghetti stick together while I work on the gravy. Bring some water to boil and add the cabonara mix. When it is cook pour it on the spaghetti. Can always add some condiments on top. Apa mau buat, what I have is only toasted bacon. So, put some toast bacon and some black pepper. Wah!!! Taste good leh............ taste like the one that we have in the restaurant wor. Even hubby and my sister say it was good. Wasted is I don't have dorry fish fillet or sausages otherwise sure tambah one. Anyway, I am going to cook again the next time but with seafood.

Hi Erina
Yes, pasta is also our favourite simple dinner when my fridge is all cleaned out and I've got nothing to cook! Usually make it with minced pork instead of minced beef though. Hey, good stuff you have on your blog. ;-)

Hey Erina... wau good start on your blog. Food is my favorite thing to talk and read about! Food in Penang still quite cheap huh? In KL ah... one big bowl of fish paste mee already costs RM4.50. That oso just ngam-ngam to fill my stomach :)

But I find KL food served in very big portion wor. Everytime, I go and eat must get someone to share with me otherwise I surely cannot finish one. Sometimes food is good but when the portion is too big you will begin to feel vormitting the more you take. Penang also not cheap lor nowadays.

I will not post on food only but things that I see which I find it interesting. Glad you like it too. Do share it with you frieds har? Thanks
