Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

Coarse salt and ground pepper
1/2 pound spaghetti
8 ounces bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 large head frisee, chopped
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
4 large eggs
Grated Parmesan, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until al dente. Reserve cup pasta water; drain pasta and transfer to a large bowl.
  • Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high until browned, about 7 minutes, pouring off and reserving fat halfway through. With a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels.
  • Add frisee to skillet and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring, until frisee just begins to wilt, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Stir in vinegar and transfer to bowl with pasta (reserve skillet). Add pasta water and toss to combine.
  • Return skillet to medium heat and add reserved bacon fat. Working in two batches, fry eggs until whites are just set and edges are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve pasta topped with Parmesan (if desired) and a fried egg.

This is a great recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover spaghetti.

This is the worst pasta dish I've ever had. I would not recommend it to anyone.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but this dish turned out terrible. It was way too salty and the egg was way too runny.

This dish was a disaster! The spaghetti was overcooked, the egg was undercooked, and the whole thing was just a mess.

I found this dish to be a bit bland. I think it needed more salt and pepper.

This dish is a little too rich for me. I think I would have preferred it without the pancetta.

I'm not a huge fan of anchovies, but I still really enjoyed this dish. The flavors were all so well-balanced.

I love the bitterness of the frisee in this dish. It really cuts through the richness of the egg and pancetta.

I've made this dish a few times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The flavors are so well-balanced and the fried egg adds a richness that takes it over the top.

This spaghetti dish was a hit! The combination of the bitter frisee, the salty pancetta, and the runny fried egg was perfect. I especially liked the crispy edges of the spaghetti.
