Bring a pan of water to a boil. Add the macaroni from the box and a pinch of salt. Cook for about 8 minutes or according to package directions.
While the pasta is cooking, dice the Spam into small, even cubes.
Place the diced Spam into a cold, non-stick frying pan and turn on the heat to medium. Allow the fat to render and the Spam to become golden and crispy.
Smash a clove of garlic with the side of your knife and add it to the pan with the frying Spam to infuse flavor.
Season the Spam generously with finely ground black pepper and continue to cook.
This recipe is a playful, budget-friendly version of authentic carbonara and is not meant to be traditional.
The key to a creamy sauce is removing the pan from the heat before adding the egg mixture. This uses the residual heat to cook the sauce gently, preventing the eggs from scrambling.
Don't drain all the pasta water. The starchy water is essential for emulsifying the fat from the Spam and the egg mixture into a silky sauce.
