Bonacini's Italy

Lazio (1x11)

Air date: Sep 10, 2018

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.
