Ingredients:
salt and black pepper
1 lb whole wheat spaghetti
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
6 -8 flat anchovy fillets
1 fresh chili pepper, seeded and sliced
5 -6 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 bunch kale, stemmed and shredded
1 few grates nutmeg
2 large egg yolks
grated pecorino romano cheese
Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt it, add the pasta and cook until al dente. Drain, reserving a cup of the pasta cooking water.
2. While the pasta is working, heat the EVOO, 4 turns of the pan, in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the anchovies, cover the pan with a splatter screen or loose foil and let the anchovies melt into the oil. Add the chile pepper and garlic and stir for 2 minutes. Add the kale and let it wilt; season with a little nutmeg.
3. In a measuring cup, beat the egg yolks with some of the reserved pasta cooking water. Toss the drained spaghetti with the kale, a few handfuls of pecorino-romano, lots of black pepper and the tempered egg yolks; add more pasta cooking water as necessary to evenly coat. Serve the pasta in shallow bowls.
