Ingredients

• 7 slices of thick-cut bacon (I used half streaky and half back bacon)
• 1/4 cup thickened cream
• 1 egg, room temperature
• 1/2 an onion, chopped
• 3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
• Handful of parsley and oregano, finely chopped
• Spaghetti for 2
• Parmesan cheese

Directions

1. Break the egg into a bowl. Add cream and mix thoroughly. Set aside for later use.

2. Chop up the bacon into fat pieces. Add a tablespoon of oil into a heated non-stick pan. Add in the bacon and let them cook for about 5 minutes.

3. Add in the onions and cook until almost transparent. Throw in the chopped garlic.

4. Cook the pasta into a pot of boiling salted water. Remove the pasta 2 minutes short of the stipulated cooking time.

5. Add the pasta to the pan of bacon. Add parsley and oregano. Mix thoroughly. Pour the pasta into a heated bowl. Pour in cream mixture and toss to coat evenly. Serve immediately.
