Easy, creamy, delicious - are words closely associated with carbonara. Very often, we get turn off by the thick and coarse texture of the cream sauce and always fail to finish a single plate of cheesy carbonara which is basically engulf with the taste of bacons rather than the goodness of cheese and mushrooms which are also ever-present yet seem to be the long forgotten cousin when cooked together with bacons.
Our Share Food Home Cook, Judy, decides to ditch the unhealthy and salty bacon (sorry to the Meat Man) and instead focus on bringing out the essence of ingredients such as cheese and mushrooms which play a significant contribution to the overall taste of the dish and also introduces diced chicken to give an added texture to the pasta rather than using bacon, definitely an healthier option for sure.
Be sure to try the Cheesy Carbonara with Mushroom and Chicken recipe and let us know how it went!

- Melt butter in pan. Add in flour, stir to mix well. Add cream and milk, whisk till combine. Add parmesan cheese and cook on low medium heat for about a min or until it thickens.

Let the pasta absorb the cream sauce and turn off the heat. To serve, garnish with some Chilli flake and Rosemary. （在热锅里融化黄油。加入面粉，搅拌均匀。倒入奶油和牛奶，搅拌至均匀结合。加入帕玛森芝士，在中低火下煮约1分钟或直到变稠。最后，倒入意面，均匀混合。让意面吸收奶油酱，熄火。撒上辣椒片和迷迭香，即可用餐！*如果您喜欢较水的奶油酱，您可以加入牛奶。）
