Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Pasta - First start the water. A big pot of boiling water salted well and turn to medium high heat. Now remember, the sauce doesn't take long, about the same time as cooking the pasta, so have everything ready.
  2. Bacon - Now in a medium saute pan, add the olive oil, then saute the diced bacon or pancetta, onion and garlic. Cook until the onions are soft and the bacon is crispy. Important, once it is done, just reduce to low heat.
  3. Pasta Again - As the bacon cooks, add your pasta to the boiling water. It should only cook a few minutes. Follow the directions on the package or the box. Remember, fresh pasta will cook much quicker than dried. Once the pasta is done. Drain well and put back in the pot to keep warm. You will toss everything together right in the pot.
  4. Sauce - Beat the eggs well and add in the salt, pepper, cream and 1/2 cup of the parmesan and mix well. Keep 1/4 cup of the cheese for a garnish.
  5. Now add the cream mixture to the bacon and onion mixture (on low heat) and cook just for a minute to warm up. You don't want to scramble the eggs. Then add in the basil and toss with the pasta.
  6. Serve - Transfer to a large serving bowl and top with the extra parmesan cheese and basil.
  7. Enjoy - It is a true favorite of mine, any time of the day.
