Ingredients
  • 4 ounces slab bacon, diced in 1/4-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 extra large eggs
  • 1/4 cup Italian parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 pound dried spaghetti
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  2. Cook bacon or pancetta in oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat until golden brown and most of the fat has been rendered, about 8 to 10 minutes, then remove skillet from heat.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, parsley, salt, and red pepper flakes until combined.
  4. Add pasta to boiling water and cook according to package directions, until al dente (tender yet still firm to the bite). Drain pasta, reserving 1 cup of the cooking water.
  5. Add hot spaghetti to bacon mixture in skillet and toss well over medium-low heat until pasta is coated. Add egg mixture and a little of the cooking water; toss gently until spaghetti looks creamy. Add cheese and toss to combine. Serve immediately.

This is a little diffrent.


I love this. My friend has made this for the past 40 years. His recipe is a little different.

Sounds interesting! And quick, which I will definitely have to try!


Hey, you make it the same way I do! I'm always seeing carbonara recipes that use cream, which just seems wrong to me.


Looks good! Love your recipes!
