Taste the Comfort of Home with Every Bite - Quick & Delicious!

🍽️ Ingredients 🍽️
- 🥚 4 large eggs
- 🧀 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 🍝 400g spaghetti
- 🥓 200g pancetta or thick-cut bacon, diced
- 🧂 Salt and black pepper to taste
- 🧄 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 🌿 Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

🧑‍🍳 Directions 🧑‍🍳
1. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water and then drain the pasta.
2. While the pasta cooks, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pancetta or bacon and cook until crisp, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
3. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, Parmesan, and a generous pinch of black pepper.
4. Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet with the pancetta and garlic. Toss well to coat in the fat.
5. Remove the skillet from heat and quickly pour the egg and cheese mixture into the pasta, whisking vigorously until creamy and smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add reserved pasta water a tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached.
6. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately, garnished with chopped parsley and additional grated Parmesan.

💡 Tips and Tricks 💡
- For a lighter version, use half the amount of pancetta and add a splash of olive oil.
- Ensure your pasta is hot when adding the egg mixture to help cook the eggs through the residual heat.
- For an authentic touch, try using guanciale instead of bacon or pancetta.
