I am making dinner for my boyfriend and I want it to be perfect. I've found 2 recipes, one is claimed to be the authentic recipe and the other recipe has cream in it. I've made the recipe with cream in it before but it was a long time ago and I don't even remember how good it was. The cream sounds better but I want something with alot of flavor. So if anyone has had experience with both of these recipes, the one without cream and one with cream, which is the best and more flavorful? Thanks for your help

Spaghetti Carbonara Recipe
Ingredients
Serve 4
1 tablespoon olive oil
175 g/6 oz smoked bacon, rinded and cut into strips
1 garlic clove, crushed and chopped
300 g/10 oz spaghetti
4 tablespoons double cream
3 egg yolks
75 g/3 oz Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
salt and pepper
--------------------------------------鈥?br>
Method:
Heat the oil in a saucepan, add the bacon and fry over a low heat for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta until al dente. Drain well and return to the pan.
Beat together the cream and egg yolks, add to the bacon and mix well over a low heat.
Add the sauce and Parmesan to the spaghetti, season with salt and pepper, toss well and serve immediately.
Note: The traditional Italian way to serve spaghetti carbonara is with an egg yolk in its shell on top of each serving, which is mixed in by the person eating.|||Haven't tried these exact recipes, but I used to eat "carbonara" made with cream. Then I tried a REAL carbonara (with no cream) and there was no looking back. With cream its all gloopy and claggy, the other is rich and intense.
Made (and eaten) several variations of each in my time. No contest, go with the proper Italian carbonara with no cream rather than the anglified/americanised version.. you won't regret it!|||There isn't cream in a true carbonara!! The cheese and oil melts to make the sauce...
