Ingredients
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 pound Spaghetti
- 3 Whole eggs
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 pound Slab bacon
- 2 tablespoons Kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 gallon Water
- Basil
- Grated Cheese
- Chopped mint
Instructions
- Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions in a large pot of salted water over high heat.
- Combine the eggs, Parmesan cheese, olive oil, mozzarella cheese, and pepper in a separate bowl.
- Add the bacon to a large skillet over medium heat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. You must cook it for about 10 minutes until it is crispy and golden brown.
- When the spaghetti is cooked, drain the water and return it to the pot. Incorporate the egg mixture by stirring constantly until it is well incorporated.
- Once the bacon has been cooked, add it to the mixture and mix well.
- Cook the eggs for five minutes, or until they are completely cooked.
- For added flavor and texture, garnish with grated cheese, chopped mint, or basil leaves.
Notes
- Ensure eggs are at room temperature before mixing with Parmesan for a creamy texture.
- Work quickly and toss gently when combining the egg mixture with pasta to avoid scrambling.
- Aim for the perfect balance between creamy and comforting without any lumps.
