Method

1

Cut the bacon into strips.

2

Place in a cold pan and cook over medium heat until the fat renders and it gets crispy. Don't add any oil. You can add a minced garlic clove for extra flavor if you like. Take the pan off the heat.

3

Cook the spaghetti in well-salted water until al dente.

4

In a bowl, combine the egg yolks and grated cheese, mix until smooth.

5

Pour in the cream and gently stir to combine.

6

Transfer the cooked spaghetti to the pan with the bacon and toss together.

7

Add the creamy egg mixture and quickly toss until you get that silky, creamy texture. Add a splash of pasta water if needed.

8

Serve right away, topped with extra cheese and black pepper to taste. Crispy fried onions are a great addition too, if you're feeling it.
