Calories: 198kcal
- 1/2 pound diced pancetta
- 2 egg yolks room temp
- 1 egg room temp
- 1/2 cup grated pecorino romano
- 2 tablespoons freshly cracked black pepper
- 1/2 pound spaghetti
- 8 hard boiled eggs peeled and cut in half
- 1/2 teaspoon red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce
- 1/4 cup mayo
- 1/4 cup grated pecorino romano
Cook the pancetta until crispy and remove from the pan. Reserve the fat and split into 2 tablespoons on one side and 1 tablespoon on the other.
Mix the 2 tablespoons of fat while still warm in with the egg yolks, one egg, pecorino, and black pepper and mix well.
Cook the pasta in boiling water and bring it right from the water into the egg mixture. Stir well to combine and let the eggs cook a little.
Make little rounds of pasta with a fork and place them on a lightly greased sheet pan lined with wax paper. Make sure they are small and have a hole in the center that you can use your finger to enlarge. Place into the fridge for an hour. (see video and photos for help with this step)
Place the egg yolks in a bowl and mash. Add the 1 tablespoon of pancetta fat, vinegar, and hot sauce, and continue to mash. Add the mayo and cheese and stir well. Add to a piping bag.
Pipe a little of the mixture into each egg half. Top with a pasta round. Flip the round upsidedown to the more narrow part fits snugly into the egg yolk cavity and sticks to the filling.
Pipe more filling on top of the pasta into the hole in the center. Top with the cooked pancetta and serve.
