This creamy udon carbonara with bacon takes just 15 minutes and 4 ingredients to make
Ingredients
All you need are
- Frozen udon: I found this in the frozen section of my local Asian market. These packs come in handy since they only take about a minute in hot water to defrost but are so chewy and fresh. I always keep some in my freezer for last minute meals
- Bacon
- Egg yolks
- Feel free to add more seasonings to taste, I usually like to add a bit of black pepper
