Pasta (Italian Spaghetti) 500gr
Pepper
5 Eggs
"Pecorino" Cheese (or Parmesan Cheese) in great quantities
Guanciale (or Bacon)
Separate and keep 2 yolks and mix with the remaining 3 eggs.
Mix it with pepper and Pecorino (Or parmesan) and beat everything till you get a smooth texture.
Cut in very little pieces and fry the bacon, add to the mix.
Now the easiest part: the pasta. Surprisingly to me, many get it wrong outside Italy, so here there are the instructions:
Make boil a pot filled with water.
Only when the water makes big bubbles, pour pasta, add salt basing on how much water there's in the pot (usually about 2 tablespoons) and then let it cook for the amount of time specified on package (Usually 9-12 minutes).
DO NOT let the pasta overcook and drain it.
Once it is drained, pour it in the bowl with the sauce and mix well.
