In the Petrarca's mothertongue called "spaghetti alla carbonara". I've been craving this lately - a perfect instant winter dish. The traditional recipe by Noris Ortolan, half-grandma, half-friend and 100% Italian.
You need:
arrow spaghetti for four people
arrow 3 eggs
arrow 2 tblsp. of sour cream
arrow 3 oz. smoked bacon
arrow 1,5 oz. grated parmesan
arrow an onion
arrow olive oil
arrow salt and pepper
1. Finely chop the onion and saute it on the olive oil. Chop the bacon into little pieces and add it to the onion. Fry for 2-3 minutes. Meanwhile cook the spaghetti al dente.
2. Mix the eggs with the cream and parmesan in a large bowl. Put the freshly cooked spaghetti inside this bowl and cover with bacon. Mix.
3. Serve with white dry wine.
There is a variation to it: you need some milk and white wine. After you fry the meat and onion, add half a cup of these liquids to the pan. Once the liquid becomes thicker and partially steams out, add the eggs and spaghetti to the pan. Mix and serve.

Isn't it a little too greasy? I think I could reduce the fat... eek

I forgot to mention that I tried this recipe a few months ago, though I made it with veggie bacon because my family's vegetarian. Rich and delicious nonetheless! =9 I'll definitely make it again.
