INGREDIENTS

1 oz chickpea spaghetti

0.5 oz diced pancetta

1 large egg

4 large egg whites

2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

0.5 tsp cracked black pepper

0.25 tsp sea salt

1 tbsp fresh parsley

PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

  While the pasta cooks, place the diced pancetta in a cold skillet and turn the heat to medium, sautéing until the fat renders and the meat is crispy.

• 3

  In a small bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, and grated parmesan cheese until well combined and smooth.

• 4

  Reserve 0.25 cup of the starchy pasta water, then drain the spaghetti and immediately add it to the skillet with the pancetta, turning off the heat.

• 5

  Quickly pour the egg mixture over the hot pasta, tossing constantly with tongs to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.

• 6

  Thin the sauce with the reserved pasta water as needed, then season with cracked black pepper and garnish with fresh parsley.
