Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet melt butter over medium heat; cook eggs sunny-side up (so that egg yolks are not broken). Sprinkle garlic powder, ground black pepper, onion and rosemary on eggs while cooking.
- Place hot pasta and cooked eggs on a plate and stir together; the broken yolks will create the sauce. Serve hot.

Steps:
- Bring a pot of salted water to the boil. Start the sauce in the next step, and start cooking the pasta when the water boils.
- Combine garlic and 4 tablespoons of the oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Cook the garlic, pressing it into the oil occasionally to release its flavor; it should barely color on both sides. Remove the garlic, and add the remaining oil.
- Fry the eggs gently in the oil, until the whites are just about set and the yolks still quite runny. Drain the pasta, and toss with the eggs and oil, breaking up the whites as you do. (The eggs will finish cooking in the heat of the pasta.) Season to taste, and serve immediately, with cheese if you like.

Absolutely wonderful! It doesn't get any easier - or tastier - than this recipe. I made it as soon as I saw the recipe (provided by Mark Bittman) and was supremely happy with the results. This recipe is a good 'trick' to have up your sleeve when time is short and the pantry is bare.

Steps:
- Begin by separating the room temperature eggs. In a small bowl, you will want to have egg whites. Set aside. In a medium-sized bowl, you will need to put the egg yolks. You want the yolk bowl a bit bigger bowl to add the parmesan. Whisk the eggs so that yolks are creamy. Whisk in 2 Tablespoons of the parmesan cheese with the yolks and set aside keeping it at room temperature.
- Once both cloves of garlic are crushed, the peel falls right off. Remove the peels. Warm the olive oil in a 10" skillet over medium-low heat for 1 minute. Reduce to low heat and add the crushed garlic and let it warm in the olive oil slowly for 3-4 minutes. Once the garlic is just starting to brown, you want to remove it. You do not want to burn or "cook" the garlic, it is more about getting the essence of the garlic to flavor the olive oil slowly.
- Add the pasta and stir to combine and coat with the garlic-infused oil. Let it fry in the skillet on medium-high heat in an even layer for 5 minutes. Toss with tongs every minute or so to ensure all sides of the spaghetti get fried.
- Turn the heat down to low and let the heat come down for 2 minutes. To the spaghetti add the egg whites to cook over low heat. Gently scramble them and coat the pasta. Once heated through and combine, try and get it in a single layer in the pan so some of the pasta and eggs can fry a bit. You don't want to burn the eggs but get them a little bit fried. Turn off the heat to cool it a bit from the fried stage. You want it warm but not blazing hot.
- Add two tablespoons of the egg yolk mixture to the warm pasta. Toss with tongs to combine so the warm pasta can gently warm up the egg yolks. Do not add it HOT or all of the egg yolks at once as it will cook/scramble the egg yolks. You want the egg yolks to combine with the pasta slowly and warm just enough to create a creamy sauce. Add a small amount of pasta at a time, stir and repeat 2-3x. Once all the egg yolk mixture is combined with the pasta, add additional parmesan cheese at this time and toss in the pan with tongs.
- Divide the fried spaghetti into two pasta bowls. Top with fresh parsley and additional parmesan cheese as a topping. Also, add salt & fresh cracked pepper to taste and serve.
- Enjoy immediately.

Steps:
- Gravy:.
- Let a about 2 Tblsps Olive Oil heat in a pasta pot.
- Chop the Garlic and combine with oil.
- Sprinkle Cayan Pepper over the oil and let simmer.
- Chop onion (opt.)and cook until soft in the Olive Oil.
- Combine Tomato Paste and let cook combining a cup or so of cold water. Let cook for about 5 minutes adding seasons as desired. Add the 2 cans of Kitchen Ready Tomatoes and let simmer adding 1/2 cup of finely grated Romano Cheese. After letting this sit for a while the gravy will begin to thicken, add 2 tomatoe cans of cold water.
- Let come to just about a boil and crack the egg into the pot. Give enough room to each of the eggs cooking in the pot so they are not touching eachother.
- Reduce heat and let cook.
- Boil the pasta as instructed on the box.
- The eggs usually take about 10 - 15 minutes to cook, the best way to tell if they are done is to carefully scoop them, if they jiggle, let them cook. Otherwise, serve pasta with gravy and place eggs atop the pasta.
- Adding Romano cheese is delectable!
- A must know about this one, never stir the gravy once you have added the eggs to the pot, doing so will break up the eggs and make a bit of a mess in your pot of gravy.
- Enjoy, I hope you like it :).

- Use high-quality spaghetti: Look for spaghetti made with durum wheat, which has a higher protein content and holds its shape better during cooking.
- Cook the spaghetti al dente: This means cooking it until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. This will help it hold up better when you add the eggs.
- Use fresh eggs: Fresh eggs will give you the best flavor and texture.
- Season the eggs well: Don't be afraid to add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to the eggs before you fry them. This will help them taste their best.
- Cook the eggs over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly without overcooking them.
- Serve the spaghetti and eggs immediately: This is the best way to enjoy them while they are hot and fresh.
