Bonacini's Italy - Season 1 Episode 11 Lazio
Once the heart of the Roman Empire and home to Rome and Vatican City, Lazio is an Italian region of hustle-and-bustle. But out in its pristine countryside, life is simpler. To start, Chef Michael Bonacini explores a simple, springtime bean dish, popular in Lazio's rustic rural areas - Mint Fava Bean Soup. For his primo, Michael goes metropolitan by cooking up a Roman favourite - Spaghetti Carbonara. This creamy pasta dish contains no cream and is made with eggs, cheese, and meat. Michael then makes Veal with Sage and Prosciutto. Rich, crispy and drizzled with a luxurious beef stock, butter, and Marsala wine sauce, this veal dish gives a hearty bite to any Italian meal. Finally, Michael stays true to Lazio by baking a soft cake made with ricotta and crispy, chewy, almond-flavoured biscuits called Amaretti.
