Tortellini Carbonara

🧂 Ingredients

• 500 g fresh tortellini
• 200 g guanciale
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
• Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

• 1 Boil the tortellini according to the package instructions until al dente.
  Reserve a cup of the pasta water, then drain the tortellini.
• 2 While the pasta cooks, dice the guanciale and fry in a large pan until crispy.
  Remove the guanciale with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the fat in the
  pan.
• 3 In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and parmesan cheese.
• 4 Remove the pan with the guanciale fat from heat. Add the drained tortellini to
  the pan and toss well to coat in the fat.
• 5 Slowly pour the egg and cheese mixture over the pasta, stirring constantly until
  the pasta is coated in a creamy sauce. If it's too thick, add some of the
  reserved pasta water.
• 6 Addthe crispy guanciale back into the pan and give everything a final mix.
  Season generously with freshly ground black pepper. 7. Serve immediately with
  additional grated parmesan cheese on top, if desired.
