Ingredients
2 Number of Servings
150g Barilla® Fettuccine 2 oz. guanciale, sliced into lardons (matchsticks) 3 egg yolks
Add guanciale to a large pan on low-medium heat, cook until golden brown. Remove excess fat from the pan.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add Barilla Fettucine, and cook until nearly al dente. Once the pasta is cooked strain the pasta and reserve a ¼ cup of pasta water.
Add strained pasta to the pan once the guanciale is perfectly golden brown.
Turn the heat off and add the cheeses and some of the pasta water 1-2 tbsp at a time. Then add 1 tsp of guanciale fat.
Toss gently while adding chili flakes and seasoning with salt.
Add egg yolks when the pan cools down a little bit to avoid overcooking eggs.
Keep tossing to build a nice consistency to the sauce. Plate and garnish with parsley.
