Pasta Cacio e Pepe

(Pasta with Cheese and Pepper)
One of the 4 classic Roman pasta dishes: Cacio e Pepe with the simplest of ingredients: cheese and pepper.

Try it!

Pasta Gamberi e Guanciale

(Pasta with Pork Cheeks and Prawns)
With this dish, you get basically a Pasta Amatriciana with prawns and the stracciatella cheese to make it a creamy sauce.
I went a little overboard with the cheese but surprisingly, it turned out really well!
Try it!

Bucatini alla Carbonara

(Spaghetti with Eggs, Pork Cheeks and Pecorino Romano)
One of Rome's most famous dishes: Spaghetti Carbonara. Actually in Rome, they would use Bucatini.
This is one of my most favourite recipes: authentic and simple! (Hint: real carbonara does not use cream!)
