My fiance and I loved your carbonara – we made it twice this weekend! We chopped up some fresh arugula to sprinkle over the pasta – a tasty addition. The second time we made it we added a squeeze of lemon and about 1/2 tsp of salt to the sauce and quite liked the result. Thanks for your wonderful blog!

That egg looks so very perfect. I’ve never seen egg on carbonara before, but if it looks like that, it has to be a good idea!

I made pasta carbonara about a week ago, but when I saw the poached egg on top of your recipe, I made it again tonight for dinner. The bucatini is a nice choice – great bite to go with the creaminess of the egg.

Also, I have to say – your poached egg looks beautiful. I wish my eggs from the farmers market had yolk like that.

Kristin, this was delightful… It caught my eye as I was considering trying something new for lunch the other day… rather than start totally from scratch I figured I’d give your recipe a shot, and twisted it up a little bit. Along with the leeks and pancetta, I let some slivers of portabella find their way in, as well as some sage. The result was excellent, and my guest enjoyed it too.

I think the poached egg was a very nice touch, and gives the dish some character and a little texture. Wonderful as always!

I was good up until the egg part, that ruined it for me, but it does look tasty.

mmm this looks so delicious. I love the spin you put on classic carbonara by adding leeks. Obviously my favorite part of carbonara is the bacon. But my friend made thisVeggie Carbonara once and used cabbage as her spin. It caramelized really nicely as I imagine the leeks did as well. Will have to tell her to add them to her version--anything to make up for the lack of bacon!
