Ingredients

Method

Directions

1

Cook the Pasta

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente.

2

Prepare the Guanciale

While the pasta is cooking, cut the guanciale (or pancetta) into small strips. In a large skillet, cook the guanciale over medium heat until it becomes crispy and golden, about 5-7 minutes.

3

Mix the Egg and Cheese

In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, grated Pecorino Romano cheese, and black pepper until well combined.

4

Combine Pasta and Guanciale

Once the pasta is cooked, reserve a cup of the pasta water and drain the rest. Quickly add the hot pasta to the skillet with the guanciale, tossing to combine.

5

Add Egg Mixture

Remove the skillet from heat. Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the hot pasta, tossing quickly to coat the spaghetti. If the sauce is too thick, add reserved pasta water a little at a time until you reach the desired creaminess.

6

Serve

Serve immediately with extra Pecorino Romano cheese and freshly cracked black pepper on top.
