Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

350g spaghetti or linguine
140g pack diced pancetta , or smoked streaky bacon
2 tsp olive oil
1 garlic clove , crushed
1 egg , plus 4 yolks
50g parmesan , grated

Steps:

  • Boil the pasta. Meanwhile, fry pancetta in oil in a frying pan for a few mins until golden and crisp. Add garlic, fry for 1 min, then turn off the heat. Briefly whisk egg and yolks with most of the Parmesan and some seasoning.
