A delicious and quick Italian dish that combines pasta, eggs, and bacon into a flavorful meal. Preparation time: 20 minutes. Serving size: 4.
Ingredients:
- 400 g pasta (e.g., spaghetti)
- 150 g bacon or guanciale
- 3 egg yolks
- 100 g Parmesan cheese (grated)

- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)
Instructions:
1. Cook the pasta in salted water according to package instructions, ensuring it remains al dente.

4. Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and toss it with the bacon and garlic in the pan.
