About the recipe
My veggie twist on a classic carbonara champions incredibly sweet leeks, thyme and plenty of cracked black pepper. It’s well worth slow-cooking the leeks here – leave them to gently tick away while you get on with other things.
Recipe From
2 large leeks
4 cloves of garlic
4 sprigs of fresh thyme
1 knob of unsalted butter
olive oil
300g dried spaghetti
50g Parmesan or vegetarian hard cheese, plus extra to serve
1 large free-range egg
Often I triple the leek base and freeze it for quick cooking another day.
