Spaghetti Carbonara
Serves 2-3
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 35 minutes

Ingredients:
200g spaghetti
4-5 rashers of bacon or pancetta
2 teaspoons olive oil
4 tablespoons white wine
1 whole egg
1 egg yolk
4 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 rounded tablespoon butter
black pepper

Method
1. Cook the pasta in a pan of boiling water. Meanwhile, cut the bacon rind and cut the bacon or pancetta into chunky pieces. Fry in olive oil for 5 minutes until crispy.
2. Throw in the wine and bubble for 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
3. In a bowl, beat together the whole egg, egg yolk, cheese and pepper with a fork.
4. When the pasta is ready, return the pan with the bacon and wine to a medium heat and add the butter.
5. Drain the pasta and return to its hot pain. Add the bacon and wine to the pasta, then pour in the egg mixture and quickly and thoroughly turn the pasta so it is entirely covered by the sauce. Don't put the pan on the heat, be patient and the eggs will set from the heat of the pasta. If the pan is too hot, they will scramble.

So delicious!!
