I found this recipe on Gojee and made it tonight. I made the pasta from scratch using the Italian flour I got from Amazon.com. It was awesome: the best pasta recipe I've made. It would be great even without homemade pasta.
I used bacon (finely chopped, fat removed) and a yellow onion (couldn't find a shallot). I did top it with a slow cooked egg, but I would consider that optional.
Ingredients
- 1.5 oz freshly grated pecorino romano
- 1 large raw egg
- freshly ground black pepper
- 1 Tbs olive oil
- 1/4 lbs guanciale, pancetta or bacon
- 1 small shallot minced
- 2 slow cooked eggs (optional)
- chopped chives
- 6 oz pasta (spaghetti, linguine, fettuccine)
Put the pecorino and black pepper in a large bowl and set aside.
Boil the pasta according to the package directions and drain.
Add olive oil to a pan and fry the guanciale (or pancetta or bacon) and shallots until it is cooked and the shallots are fragrant. Add the drained pasta to the pot and toss to coat.
Dump the pasta into the bowl with the cheese and pepper then break the raw egg on top. Toss to distribute the egg and cheese evenly then plate the pasta. Top each bowl of pasta with a slow cooked egg and sprinkle with chives.
