Udon Carbonara is an Udon noodle dish which is mixed in a scrumptiously eggy and cheesy Carbonara sauce. Spaghetti Carbonara is one of the most popular Italian pasta dishes in Japan, and people there just love the taste of this pasta with savory creamy sauce. This Carbonara sauce may not be authentic Italian, but it is super easy to make for anybody. In fact, it actually takes only 15 minutes from start to finish. The rich Carbonara sauce clings to the chunky, chewy Udon noodles, and it is absolutely delicious. It is certainly not traditional, but it’s a kind of dish Japanese people eat as an everyday meal. Hope you try it!
