I bought your book while ago. When will you update the book with new recipes?

[@alexanderpiusinski278]

Haha i don't think i've ever heard you sound so passionate about a dish. And understandably so, it looks phenomenal.

[@Felu]

This was the dish that got me into cooking. I LOVE this

[@MHBlackAce]

Once youve tried youll understand it even more

[@tyra9177]

Totally relatable!

[@GabrielDoesAThing]

surprised to see a traditional non-"anabolic alternative"(though this does have quite a bit of protein anyway) dish on your channel but not a bad surprise, I think you did a really good explaining everything and the idea with the egg bowl over the steaming pasta is something L'll probably steal. Also I agree rummo makes the best bronze cut pasta imo

[@theboxingteacher333]

Everybody get in here; new Felu dropped

[@Felu]

Let's go!

[@whigger83]

Ah, LaMolisana is my favourite ❤

[@mike_tkgchs]

amazing one - if you live in germany, you can get kaufland "favourites" brand which is also made in la molisana factory - cost half and tastes as good as the original

[@Klooney9mm]

I've been doing similar but instead of pasta I use packet Korean or Japanese noodles. I cook about 250g skewer, kebab meat on its own in a pan until ready. Then cook the noodles in half to most a cup of water until ready to combine with flavour and put the meat back in. Avoiding oil extras.

[@lagoat-zz]

thumbnail by itself looks so damn good 👍🏼

[@Felu]

Thank you 🙏

[@AZGayle1989]

I already know how to cook it 😂 I love it so much I almost cook it every day 😂

[@mike_tkgchs]

i'm sure you know by now but kaufland's "favourite" brand in the green package is also made in la molisana factory, cost half of the original - rummo is amazing, just a tad too expensive IMHO but good for a treat . love edeka's offerings on their house brand for cheese and a bunch of other stuff too

[@Felu]

I never get to kaufland but I will check out the pasta when I'm there, thanks for the tip!

[@evandarling699]

Looking amazing as ever!❤

[@Felu]

Thank you!

[@Exercise4CheatMeals]

50/50 blend of parm and reggiano is GOATED.

[@Nice.SHIGOTO]

You two guys got me through my hardest time of loosing weight. You can’t imagine how grateful I am

[@Felu]

It is :)

[@Felu]

Thank you brother!

[@10Deei]

Hi Felu. Really enjoying your channel, and this recipe is definitely mouth watering. I would like to suggest you ditch the plastic cutting board in favor of perhaps a wooden one. The small plastic bits resulting from cutting food on top of it make their way into your food, and they're at best an "unnecessary" spice. Keep up the great content!

[@astophum]

Not too sure about the egg White cooking so Little tho

[@DirkDierickx]

so good, but those calories are out of this world. it's a dish i only have maybe 3x a year.

[@Felu]

calories are quite high yes but every once in a while I make space in my macros and have this meal, I love it 😃

[@mammouth2727]

No protein powder in the sauce ? 😂

[@lucubrator4283]

When I was studying in Italy, my Italian flatmate always told me that I (German) was not using enough water for cooking the pasta. Now an Italian living in Germany is telling me to use less😅 Is it a carbonara (armatriciana, cacio e pepe...) specific thing because the pasta water used for the sauce should be rich in starch?

[@mike_tkgchs]

as an italian living in germany, i can tell you... use however much or little water you like, the goal is for the sauce to stick to the pasta and the cooking pasta water which is indeed rich in starch helps the sauce become like a coating so that they just blend well - how much or how little depends on how much pasta you make . i'd say rule of thumb one cooking spoon worth of water for each portion, but do experiment with it

[@ariel1k2]

I think this is the first actual cheat meal I've seen from this channel, looks delicious! However I think that the macros for the UNCOOKED spaghetti was used in the summary...

[@petemiller2651]

yes, because the weight also refers to the uncooked spaghetti. he used 100g spaghetti uncooked and tracked 100g uncooked. all correct

[@ariel1k2]

@petemiller2651 Wouldn't really make sense to track uncooked since he's eating it cooked...

[@XsedoX]

Never count cooked stuff always uncooked. Calories on the package most of the time are counted for uncooked thing. For the pasta the difference between cooked and uncooked is water. Pasta's weight roughly doubles after cooking so if you count pasta afterwards you end up eating a lot less calories (assuming uncooked values on the package) than you counted. Meat on the other hand is opposite it loses weight after cooking.@@ariel1k2

[@viktorpetkov8568]

Man where were you a year ago when I first started. making carbonara. Every wrong move you pointed out cost me like 5 messed up carbonara. Nowadays it's fine but man I fucked up a lot of times. So don't give up guys.Also if guanciale is too expensive just buy the pork cubes. They got a lot of protein too.

[@JohnnischDow]

The temperature for the pancetta is too high. This amount of smoke means it is unhealthy. Use low temperature for a longer time before you do anything else.

[@ictogon]

What a sad life if this is your cheat meal

[@blainebickle1178]

what kind of cheat meal would make his life not sad?

[@Jamesbradley001]

Looks excellent to me. Keep hating dork

[@ictogon]

@blainebickle1178 Taco in a bag using 2 pounds of hamburger and a family sized dorito bag

[@blainebickle1178]

@@ictogon I think he'd rather have the carbonara lol

[@tyra9177]

Carbonara is also my cheat meal and would never want to swap it with random ass fast food lol
