Ingredients

• 400 grams Spaghetti
• 150 grams Pancetta or guanciale
• 4 large Eggs
• 80 grams Parmesan cheese
• 40 grams Pecorino Romano cheese
• 1 clove Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Cook the spaghetti until just al dente according to package instructions. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.

Step 2

While the pasta cooks, dice the pancetta or guanciale into small cubes. Finely grate the Parmesan and Pecorino Romano cheeses and set aside.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and cheeses until well combined. Season with a pinch of black pepper and set aside.

Step 4

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced pancetta or guanciale and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until crispy and golden brown. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1–2 minutes, being careful not to burn it.

Step 5

Drain the pasta and immediately transfer it to the skillet with the pancetta, tossing to coat the strands in the rendered fat. Reduce the heat to low.

Step 6

Remove the skillet from the heat and slowly pour the egg and cheese mixture over the hot pasta, tossing quickly to create a creamy sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of the reserved pasta water to loosen it to your desired consistency.

Step 7

Add the chopped parsley and season with additional black pepper to taste. Toss to combine.

Step 8

Serve immediately, garnished with extra grated cheese and parsley if desired.
