This is what we make when we're in a hurry, served with a salad. Not exactly for the dieters, but it does satisfy. 8/24/07, my baby is leaving for college tomorrow and has requested this as her last meal. She usually hates pasta, but she loves this dish.
Ingredients:
1 lb spaghetti or 1 lb perciatelli
3 eggs
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese or 1/2 cup romano cheese
1/2 lb pancetta or 1/2 lb bacon
fresh ground pepper
4 tablespoons butter, melted
Directions:
1. Bring water in spaghetti pot to boil, then add pasta.
2. In large bowl mix raw eggs with cheese, add pepper.
3. Brown pancetta in a pan, cut into pieces.
4. Melt butter (I use the microwave for the last 2 steps).
5. Drain pasta and pour into egg mixture.
6. The heat will cook the sauce.
7. Add pancetta, butter, and mix.
8. Serve with additional grated cheese and pepper.
