Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1

    Add salt to your pasta water, bring to a boil & cook bucatini until al dente.

  2. 2

    While your pasta is cooking, chop your parsley, mince garlic & grate pecorino Romano cheese.

  3. 3

    Whisk together heavy cream, egg yolks, grated cheese and black pepper. Let sit on the counter to lose the “chill” - not having it super cold ensures your sauce is smooth and doesn’t clump.

  4. 4

    Drizzle pot with olive oil and add pancetta. Sauté until browned. Then add garlic & frozen peas. Stir until peas are thawed.

  5. 5

    Add bucatini straight from the water pot and combine with pancetta & pea mixture.

  6. 6

    Pour in cream sauce and stir really well. Add 1/4-1/2 C pasta water if needed to achieve a creamy, smooth consistency.

  7. 7

    Season with red pepper flakes, chopped parsley and more grated cheese. Serve immediately!
