INGREDIENTS

2 oz dry spaghetti

1 oz diced pancetta

1 large egg

0.75 cup liquid egg whites

3 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

0.5 tsp cracked black pepper

0.25 tsp sea salt

1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

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

• 3

  In a small bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, grated parmesan, and cracked black pepper until well combined.

• 4

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

• 5

  Slowly pour the egg mixture over the warm pasta while tossing continuously with tongs to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.

• 6

  Add a splash of the reserved pasta water if needed to reach a silky consistency, then garnish with fresh parsley and sea salt before serving immediately.
