To me, carbonara is one of the most important dishes in a vegan kitchen. This is a simple dish in which you can easily get creative in all kinds of ways, and you don’t need to worry about dairy products.
I can’t really remember the first time I made carbonara, but I can remember the first time I tried it out. I was at a friend’s house, and she had some fresh pasta. I remember the smell of the fresh pasta was so good and I just had to try it.
It was unlike any pasta I had ever had before. It was light, fluffy and so yummy.
