1tbsp olive oil
250g pancetta/ smoked bacon chopped up small
50g butter (I use salted)
150ml dry white wine
4 whole eggs
2 egg yolks
100g grated Parmesan cheese
plus extra for serving 400g Spaghetti
Salt and pepper to season
Warm the oil in large frying pan and fry the pancetta/bacon until golden. Add the butter then the wine and simmer for a few minutes.
In a bowl beat the whole eggs with the egg yolks and add the parmesan. Season but go easy on the salt!
Cook and drain the spaghetti, return to the saucepan, add the pancetta mixture and mix to evenly coat then stir in the eggs and cheese mixture. The heat from the spaghetti will cook the egg. Serve with warm foccacia and green salad and add extra Parmesan and black pepper. Enjoy! Let me know if you make this and what you think :)

Not so sure about the wine or focaccia, but the rest sounds pretty authentic to me - in fact the same as we make it! xx
Ah cool, glad to hear it :) I do love focaccia and a good vino to top it off!
Just wanted to let you know I made this last night and it was a huge hit!
Didn't add any salt ... and I might use a little less parmesan next time, otherwise delicious!
It's definitely going to be on our regular list now, thanks!
