Ingredients

Directions

  1. Finely chop the lountza and set aside.
  2. Place the egg, the yolk, the cheese, and the pepper in a bowl, and mix.
  3. Boil water with a little salt in a pot.
  4. Add the spaghetti and cook for 6 minutes (al dente).
  5. Optionally, spray a pan with oil spray and, until the spaghetti is cooked, sauté the lountza for 5-6 minutes over high heat or until it becomes crispy, and then lower the heat completely.
  6. To the bowl with the mixture, add the tablespoons of hot water from the pot one by one without stopping whisking, so that it does not curdle.
  7. Drain the spaghetti, transfer it to the pan, and stir.
  8. Ensure that the temperature in the pan has dropped, slowly add the mixture, stir, and remove from the heat.
  9. Optionally, serve with more grated cheese.

Notes

  • I recommend having all the ingredients ready before starting the recipe.
  • The recipe is not difficult at all, it just requires a little care so that the mixture doesn't curdle.
