Philippe Léveillé's recipe: carbonara, the rooster has laid the egg

A very demanding recipe by the great two-Michelin-starred chef, an expression of his fusion cuisine between traditional French and Italian culture. Certainly surprising even in the title.

Philippe Léveillé's recipe: carbonara, the rooster has laid the egg

Ingredients:

200 g creste di rooster pasta

300 g rooster combs

1 carrot

1 stalk celery

½ golden onion

150 g bacon

3 yolks

100 g vegetable broth

150g Pecorino Romano

3 g ground black pepper

For the rooster comb ragu

Prepare a sauté with extra virgin olive oil, chopped celery, carrot and onion. Cut half of the rooster's combs into fairly regular cubes of 5 mm per side. Start the cooking over a very high heat, pour in the white wine, cover and cook for 45 minutes on a low heat when it has completely evaporated.

For the carbonara sauce

In a bain-marie bowl, vigorously mix the egg yolks with the pecorino cheese, pepper and vegetable broth until the cheese has completely melted. Put the mixture into a siphon with a cream charge. Leave warm.

For the guanciale ingot

Cut the bacon into strips, brown the bacon thoroughly in a saucepan, remove the fat and add ice and cold water to cover. Let it reduce until the desired intensity of flavor is reached. Pour into ingot-shaped molds and leave to freeze in the freezer for at least 5 hours.

For the puffed rooster's combs

Overcook the rooster's combs in plenty of water, let them dry at 75°C overnight. When they are ready, fry them in seed oil at 200°C.

Cook the pasta in plenty of salted water, drain it al dente and finish cooking it in the pan together with the rooster's crest ragout.

Take a chicken egg, make a hole in the top, empty it with the help of a syringe. Rinse the egg and pasteurize it in boiling water.

Put the carbonara sauce inside the egg with the help of a small siphon nozzle.

Introduction

Serve the pasta in a bowl. Shake the egg, break it and season the pasta, finish with a grated bacon ingot and crispy rooster combs.
