Prosciutto cut fat from meat and cook it on medium heat so the fat melts and you are left with crispy fat bits, then i added prosciutto into the melted fat and cook on max heat until crispy (i found that if i cook it on low or medium heat the prosciutto will be tough and not so enjoyable that way). When done, add spaghetti and egg mix (i use whole egg, a lot of black pepper and 50g pecorino per person) and mix, finally serve and top with extra pecorino, black pepper and sprinkle with the crispy fat bits.
Note you need whole prosciutto so you can cut into cubes.

Note i originally use 125g spaghetti per person but pic rel i believe is 150g (i didnt want to leave 25g in package) so it is not that creamy but still delishes
Looks really good, but if that s prosciutto and not guanciale then it’s not carbonara. These are the rules.
It seems very tasty and delicious, I tell you as an italian born. I would taste a little hahahaha
