Cooking steps
This one is really tasty and easy. Before you start making the sauce get the pasta water boiling. Make sure the water is salty like sea water and add some olive oil to it... just a splash.

First crank up the heat on a large saute pan. Then add the olive oil and bacon.... turn the heat to low after the bacon gets a little color on it. Let the bacon brown very slow turning it occasionally. Once the bacon is fully browned and crisp add the shallots and garlic. At this point you should also start cooking the noodles. Let the shallots and garlic sweat a bit then add the pepper and salt. Now that the veg is soft, add the stock, cream and a splash of the pasta water. Reduce the liquid in the pan by half and remove from the heat.



When the noodles are almost done return the sauce to heat adding the parsley and peas. Once the noodles are cooked to your desired tenderness drain them and toss them in the pan with the sauce. last add the parmesan and egg yolks one at a time as you stir the pasta. Finally plate it and grate some parmesan on top.
