Steps
Peel the potatoes, cut them into cubes, and steam them for about 20 minutes, until they become soft but firm.
In a bowl, beat the eggs with the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper until you get a homogeneous mixture.
Cut the bacon into cubes or strips.
In a non-stick pan, heat the extra virgin olive oil and brown the bacon over medium heat until crispy.
Add the cooked potatoes, mix, and let them absorb the flavors for a few minutes.
Turn off the heat, pour in the egg cream, and quickly mix to obtain a creamy effect without letting the egg set.
Our Carbonara Potatoes are ready. Serve them immediately, perhaps with an extra touch: a dusting of Parmesan and black pepper.
Enjoy your meal.
