    List of Ingredients




    1 pound spaghetti
    Salt for the pasta water
    1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
    1/2 lb. chunk pancetta, cut into small cubes
    1/2 cup dry white wine
    1/2 cup grated Pecorino Romano cheese
    Freshly ground coarse black pepper
    A handful of flat-leaf parsley leaves, lightly chopped

    Recipe



    Start cooking the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water.

    In a large skillet heat the olive oil over medium heat. When hot, add the pancetta and sauté until just starting to crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the white wine and let it boil until almost evaporated.

    When the spaghetti is al dente, drain it well, saving about 1/2 cup of the cooking water. Add the spaghetti to the skillet. Toss over low heat for a minute or two to coat the strands well with the pancetta and oil. Transfer to a large, warmed serving bowl and add the Pecorino, a generous amount of coarse black pepper, and the parsley. Add a few tablespoons of the cooking water to loosen the sauce. Toss again and serve hot.
