Cook spaghetti according to package instructions timing it to be finished just as you finish the sauce. Reserve some of the water.

In large skillet heat oil and fry pancetta until starting to crisp about three to four minutes.

Add garlic and cook for one more minute.

Toss the spaghetti with the pancetta and garlic heating through for about 2 minutes.

Mix eggs and Parmesan. Off heat add to spaghetti mixing thoroughly but making sure not to scramble the eggs.

Loosen sauce with pasta water until it reaches desired consistency. Sprinkle with parsley to serve.

Notes: Make sure the spaghetti is hot. That heat will cook the raw eggs.

Makes 6 servings.
