Step-by-step

  1. Cook the spaghetti in a large pot of salted, boiling water.
  2. Meanwhile, cut the guanciale or bacon into strips and put it in a large pan. Gently brown the bacon without adding oil.
  3. In the meantime, beat the egg yolks with the pecorino and two spoons of boiling water. Add freshly ground black pepper.
  4. When the pasta is cooked al dente (check packet instructions for how long), drain it and put it into the pan with the bacon.
  5. Take the pan away from the heat and add the beaten egg yolk and pecorino mixture. Finally add a tablespoon of cooking water for a creamy result.
  6. Stir for a minute and serve the spaghetti with carbonara sauce immediately. Sprinkle with more grated pecorino and black pepper, if you like.
