- 1 Pound spaghetti
- 8 Ounces (8 slices) bacon, cut 1 inch thick crosswise
- Coarse salt and freshly
 ground pepper - 3 large eggs
- 3/4 Cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
- 1/2 Cup half-and-half
1. Set a large pot of water to boil (for pasta). In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 8 to 12 minutes; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. 2. Salt boiling water generously; add pasta and cook until al dente, according to package instructions. 3. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together eggs, Parmesan, and half-and-half. Set aside. 4. Drain pasta, leaving some water clinging to it. Working quickly, add hot pasta to egg mixture. Add bacon; season with salt and pepper, and toss all to combine (heat from pasta will cook eggs). Serve immediately, sprinkled with additional Parmesan cheese. Other variations of Pasta Carbonara
