Carbonara Sauce for Pasta

I tend to cheat when I cook carbonara. To be really honest, I don't know how to cook carbonara. So what do I do? I would use Campbell's Chunky New England Clam Chowder.

1) Get 100g of bacon from the supermarket. Cut into 1cm pieces. Fry in a non-stick pan. Fry it till its fat is more or less "melted" down into liquid oil. And you've got crispy little bits of bacon. Remove bits of bacon from fire. Leave oil in pan

2) Cut fresh shitake mushrooms into tiny bits. Dunk into the frying pan with the lot of bacon oil. Fry till fragrant.

3) Add milk. Like 3/4 cup would be lovely. Let the mix thicken on its own. Stir constantly.

4) When the mix thickens a little, dunk in the can of clam chowder (remember to open the can! haha). Sprinkle in Italian herbs.

5) Let the sauce simmer a bit. Make sure you stir it once in a while. Don't let it char!

6) If you reaaaaaally need to let the sauce thicken... Stir in one beated egg. Stir in small quantities.

7) Ready to serve? Throw in the crispy bacon bits! Add more Italian herbs for great taste!

Who said that you can't cheat on carbonara sauce? Ha!
