INGREDIENTS
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta
3 Whole Eggs
1 ounce Lean Pancetta
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/2 tsp Black Pepper
A pinch Salt
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the whole wheat pasta. Cook according to package instructions until al dente, then drain, reserving a small cup of pasta water.
While the pasta cooks, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the lean pancetta and cook until it becomes crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, black pepper, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Return the skillet to low heat. Add the drained hot pasta to the pan, then quickly pour in the egg mixture, stirring continuously. The residual heat from the pasta will gently cook the eggs, forming a creamy sauce. If the sauce seems too thick, add a splash of the reserved pasta water to loosen it.
Stir in the crispy pancetta, ensuring an even distribution of flavors. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve immediately while warm, enjoying the blend of creamy texture and crispy pancetta.
