Ingredients
Method
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in spaghetti and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente (about 12 minutes). Reserve 1 cup pasta water, then drain.
- Warm a skillet over medium heat. Add diced guanciale and cook until golden and crispy, about 5–7 minutes. Remove from heat.
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, egg yolks, and grated Pecorino Romano until smooth and creamy.
- Add drained spaghetti to the skillet with guanciale off the heat and toss to coat in rendered fat.
- Pour egg–cheese mixture over spaghetti, quickly tossing to create a silky sauce. Add reserved pasta water a splash at a time until desired creaminess.
- Season generously with freshly ground black pepper and sprinkle extra Pecorino Romano on top before serving.
