INGREDIENTS

2 oz whole wheat spaghetti

1 oz diced pancetta

1 large egg

0.75 cup liquid egg whites

2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

0.5 cup frozen peas

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp sea salt

1 clove garlic

PREPARATION

• 1

  Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package directions until al dente.

• 2

  While the pasta is cooking, whisk together the whole egg, liquid egg whites, grated parmesan cheese, and black pepper in a small bowl until well combined.

• 3

  In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced pancetta for 4-5 minutes until it becomes crispy and the fat has rendered.

• 4

  Add the minced garlic clove and frozen peas to the skillet with the pancetta, sautéing for an additional 2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.

• 5

  Reserve 0.25 cup of the starchy pasta cooking water, then drain the spaghetti.

• 6

  Turn off the heat and move the skillet to a cool burner to prevent the eggs from scrambling.

• 7

  Add the hot pasta to the skillet and immediately pour the egg mixture over it, tossing vigorously with tongs.

• 8

  Gradually add the reserved pasta water one tablespoon at a time while tossing until a silky, creamy sauce coats every strand of pasta.

  Season with sea salt and serve immediately in a warm bowl.
