Notes

Pecorino: use parmesan if that is what you have on hand. Any hard Italian cheese should work. If making for vegetarians, make sure you check the label on the packaging.

Linguine: use whatever shape you like. I find a long pasta is delicious here as the sauce is so smooth and silky but any shape will work.

Vegetable: this courgette carbonara would also be very good with some chopped asparagus or a handful of baby spinach. Add it in at the same time or in place of the courgette.

Add bacon: adding crispy bacon would be really good. Fry the bacon then add the garlic and courgette to the pan as the recipe states. Otherwise, this is a delicious vegetarian recipe.

Herbs: swap the basil for parsley or chives if that’s your preference. It would also be good with mint too since mint, lemon and courgette are a lovely pairing.

Make it spicy: add a pinch of chilli flakes or fresh chilli when frying the garlic to add a good level of heat to your pasta.

If you want to double the recipe: double everything and continue.

What to do with leftovers: This pasta is best fresh but if needed, transfer to an airtight container for 3 days and keep in the fridge. To reheat, add to a pan over medium heat with a knob of butter. Stir frequently, tossing together until it’s smooth and creamy again.
