Prepare egg mixture

Whisk 5 very fresh eggs in a bowl with half of the ground Pecorino romano, some salt, and freshly ground black pepper.

Mix pasta and guanciale

Lift the cooked spaghetti out of the cooking water with tongs and add it dripping wet to the fried guanciale in the pan. Add some cooking water if necessary and bring everything to a boil briefly.

Finish carbonara

Remove the pan from the heat and quickly stir the egg mixture into the pasta so that it does not curdle but settles around the pasta as a creamy sauce.
