Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oil and butter in a pan, then add the pancetta and parsley; saute over medium heat to brown the pancetta well.

In a bowl beat together the egg yolks, cream, and cheese.

Meanwhile, cook the bucatini until just al dente. Drain the pasta well, and turn it out into a serving dish.

Working quickly, pour first the pancetta mixture, then the beaten egg mixture over the pasta. Toss quickly to coat the strands with the sauce; the eggs will cook in the heat of the pasta. Serve immediately while still hot.

6 servings.
