(Egg spaghetti alla chitarra with speck - Our recipe)

Time: preparation: 10 minutes ........ cooking: 20 minutes 250 g (8 1/2 oz) egg spaghetti alla chitarra 85 g (3 oz) speck (smoked ham), sliced 4 eggs 2 tablespoons dried chives 8 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil Chilli pepper, if you like Grated Parmesan, if you like Salt easy recipe

  Spoon measures are American spoons, that is standard cook's measuring spoons used in USA.
  The best plan is to regard 2 American teaspoons or tablespoons as 1 English teaspoon or tablespoon (eating spoons)

Boil spaghetti alla chitarra in abundant salt water.
Meanwhile cut speck (smoked ham) into thin strips, put olive oil in a non-stick frying pan, beat eggs with a pinch of salt and chilli pepper, if you like it, in a bowl.
Drain pasta very well and pour it into the pan together with the speck strips. Start cooking over a medium heat, stirring well. As soon as oil is hot, pour in beaten eggs, stir quickly and switch off the gas. Be careful: your eggs must not cook entirely and the sauce must be creamy.
Serve immediately and sprinkle with grated Parmesan if you like.

What's the right wine?
Our suggestion is: Meranese di Collina o Lago di Caldano (red wines from Trentino - Italy)
