How to cook deliciously - Roasted Asparagus Carbonara

1. Stage

Heat oven to 400°. On a large baking sheet, toss asparagus with oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until tender and charred, 18 to 20 minutes.

2. Stage

Meanwhile, in a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta until al dente. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water, and return to pot.
