Also didn’t have enough colour on the pancetta (yes, yes, I know, it’s all that was available)
Please be gentle

Bro, finally someone who use Pancetta instead of guanciale. I use Pancetta too (because I’m too poor to afford Guanciale). And It’s delicious. Someone who is not afraid to say it

No, that is spectacular. It’s actually hard to get it that thick if you are using a traditional recipe.
If you used cream or something, then yeah maybe it’s too thick, but if it is just eggs and pecorino romano, that is perfect. Eggs are very very easy to overcook and it turns the sauce into a chunky mess.

Ma scusa non sei italiano giusto? Secondo me è ben fatta! Qualche piccolo accorgimento e nessuno noterà la differenza da quella originale

You’re like 15% away from being perfect. Maybe a splash of pasta water, but this is still a damn good carb.

It looks indeed too thick, and too white too. Did you add cream to it by any chance? Anyway, next time it’ll be better, keep it going!

For some people. Many enjoy it this way. Looks like a 10 out of 10. I bet you it tastes even better.

Consider a bit more cooking water next time.

I’d add one more egg. Seems a bit pale.

That’s what we eat at home, if the pecorino was too overpowering consider a 50/50 pecorino/parmigiano split

Two ways to make it less thick. One is to cook the sauce less. The other is less cheese. You can cheat by adding a little pasta water instead.

You gotta twirl your long noodles in a spoon/ladle before plating it chef

Looks like a two bite pasta to me, I’d muck that for sure

Honestly that looks rich not wrong. Carbonara police might argue but I’d still eat it

Super silky! Good temperature control there.
If you’re micro-optimizing, add more pasta water next time to loosen it up a bit, and (as you said) cook the pancetta a bit more.
