ARTICHOKE CARBONARA
Steps:
- Directions Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for pasta. Add the penne, and cook until al dente. Meanwhile, in an -11-- or -12--inch -cast--iron (or nonstick) skillet, heat the olive oil over -medium--high heat. Add the artichokes, and cook until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the peas, and ladle in 1 cup of pasta water. Season with ½ teaspoon salt and the -red--pepper flakes, cover, and simmer until vegetables are very tender, about 5 minutes more. Uncover, and raise the heat to cook away any excess liquid; there should be just enough liquid to coat the bottom of the pan. While the vegetables cook, whisk together the eggs, ¼ cup of the grated cheese, the cream, and the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Butter a medium-sized baking pan. When the vegetables and pasta are ready, scoop the pasta into the skillet with a spider, and toss to combine. Remove from heat, and let cool for a minute; then stir in the egg, cheese, and cream mixture. Set all in the buttered baking dish. Sprinkle with the remaining ¾ cup grated cheese, and bake until set and crusty, about 20 minutes. Cool for a few minutes before serving.
ARTICHOKE HEART AND ANCHOVY CARBONARA
This recipe came about because my partner loves carbonara but I don't eat pancetta. The anchovy flavor is quite mild, but if you are an anchovy fan (like me) you could certainly double the amount. This is not a typical carbonara but the method is pretty much the same. You could also make this with other types of pasta. I use frozen artichoke hearts that are quartered, but marinated ones could be used as well. I hope you like this recipe as much as we do!
