Method

  • Step 1: Wash and dry the chickpeas. Carefully roast in a pre-heated oven at 200° C for about 20 minutes, until they become crunchy and toasted.
  • Step 2: Cook the spaghetti in boiling salted water until "al dente". Reserve for later just about a little of the cooking water.
  • Step 3: In a bowl, beat the egg yolks with the grated Pecorino cheese. Whisk everything with a little bit of cooking water, until you get a smooth and silky consistency.
  • Step 4: In another bowl, mix the toasted chickpeas with extra virgin olive oil. Add smoked paprika powder, salt, and pepper to taste.
  • Step 5: Toss the cooked spaghetti with the egg yolk sauce and let them sit together for 1 minute.
  • Step 6: Serve your halal Carbonara pasta, topping it with a generous spoonful of crunchy chickpeas. Enjoy!
