Mark here...this recipe comes from Jamie Oliver. It's fast and easy and so good! It's his Bow Tie Pasta Carbonara, from when we watch Battlestar Galactica Season 2 episode, "Final Cut"
Bow Tie Pasta Carbonara
Ingredients
1 box bow tie pasta
1 egg
1/2 cup cream
seas alt
pepper
about a fist size of pancetta, cut into about an inch cubes or strips
about 2/3 of a 10 oz bag of frozen peas
about a handful of chopped mint
2 handfuls of grated parmesan
Bring a pan of salted water to a boil and add the pasta. Whisk the egg and cream in a separate bowl.
In another pan, cook the pancetta until golden.
About a minute before the pasta is done, add the peas. Then, when done, reserve a bit of the pasta cooking water, and drain the pasta and peas. Return the pasta and peas to the pan and add the pancetta and mint. Stir, then add the cream mixture and stir quickly so that a sauce forms (and not scrambled eggs!). Add parmesan and salt and pepper and stir. Serve.

Final Cut
Mark here... Laurel and I are watching the next episode of Battlestar Galactica, "Final Cut". I've made us some Bow Tie Carbonara courtesy of Jamie Oliver. Laurel has made some garlic bread and Broccoli Almondine.
This episode has Lucy Lawless guest starring as a reporter in the fleet covering a story of an incident that happened while Col Tigh was in charge of the fleet. The episode plays out as a "filler" episode at first. It's still interesting but we are lead to believe that D'Anna Biers (Lucy Lawless) is simply an overeager reporter in the fleet. In the footage she shoots we see the overworked soldiers on Galactica and how Roslin and Adama want to show a "warts and all" view of them, no matter what. At the same time we see the guilt Tigh feels over the incident. The catch though is that Biers can't show the pregnant Caprica-Sharon. We think all is good as the end shows Biers' report as a inspirational portrait of Galactica's crew. Fake out! D'Anna Biers is another Cylon! The end of the episode shows another D'Anna viewing the footage back on Caprica with the other Cylons!
Hi Laurel here...nothing to add really, but what a twist! We think Lucy Lawless is a sympathetic human reporter showing the human side of Galactica, but it turns out she's a Cylon?!? She has clearly built some trust with Roslin and Adama by making her piece show Galatica in a positive light, I wonder how she will use her newfound trust?
