Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 6 ounces fettuccine
  • 1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) butter
  • 3 eggs, beaten well
  • 1-2 tablespoons fresh chopped herbs (parsley, thyme and sage all work well)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instruction

  • Cook pasta in heavily salted water until done. Save 1/2 cup of pasta water and drain. Set aside.
  • Melt butter in a large deep frying pan over medium heat. When it is melted, stir in eggs. Cook until just barely set, stirring once or twice to break them up.
  • Add pasta and herbs and toss with tongs until the pasta and eggs are combined. Add a little pasta water as needed to give the eggs a sauce-like consistency.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste, and serve right away on warm plates. Feel much better.
