Ingredients
- 400 g potato gnocchi
- 150 g bacon
- 2 eggs plus 1 yolk eggs
- 50 g grated Parmesan
- 1 clove garlic
- to taste black pepper
Method, step by step
- In a bowl, beat the 2 eggs with the extra yolk, the grated cheese and plenty of black pepper. Set aside.
- Brown the bacon in a frying pan over medium heat with no oil until crispy. Add the minced garlic for the last minute.
- Cook the gnocchi in salted water; they are ready when they float (2-3 minutes). Drain them, saving 125 ml of the cooking water.
- Lower the heat to the minimum, add the gnocchi to the bacon frying pan and take it off the heat.
- Pour in the egg mixture and stir quickly, adding a little cooking water, until the sauce is creamy (without scrambling the egg).
- Serve immediately with more cheese and pepper on top.
