Bring salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente.
While the spaghetti is cooking, cook the Chinese sausage until brown on the outside. Set aside.
Whisk the eggs and egg yolk together. Set aside.
Once the spaghetti is done, reserve a cup of the pasta water and drain the rest of the water. Add the spaghetti to a mixing bowl.
Add the whisked eggs, pepper, and grated cheese. Toss together. Add some pasta water if you feel like the sauce needs to be thinner.
Lastly, add the Chinese sausage on top and toss everything together.
Serve with a garnish of minced parsley.
- 100 grams of pasta is the perfect amount of pasta - I know it's weird to weigh your pasta before you cook it, but a chef once told me that this is perfect amount of pasta for an individual. So who am I to argue with a chef?! I've been using this amount of pasta, and it works for me. Definitely feel free to use more if you want to!
- Use pasta water to thin out the sauce if it gets too creamy - I use mostly the eggs for the sauce which makes it pretty creamy. If you want a thinner sauce, add more pasta water.
- Use as much cheese as you want - Cheese will make the sauce creamier, and in my opinion, the cheese is the best part!
- Make sure to toss everything together while it's hot - This is important because the heat from pasta cooks the raw egg.
