    List of Ingredients






    INGREDIENTS:
    1 pound bucatini or thick stranded spaghetti
    1/4 pound (100 g) pancetta or guanciale, diced
    1/4 pound (100 g) ripe tomatoes, blanched, peeled, seeded and chopped
    Half an onion, minced
    A hot pepper, seeded and shredded (or leave it whole if you want to remove it)
    1/2 cup olive oil
    An abundance (a cup) of freshly grated Pecorino Romano
    PREPARATION:
    Set the pasta water to heat, salt it when it boils, and cook the pasta. While this is happening, heat the oil in a skillet, add the diced meat, and cook until it browns, stirring the pieces about. Remove them to a sheet of absorbent paper with a slotted spoon and keep them warm. Add the onion to the grease in the pan, together with the hot pepper, and when it begins to color add the tomato pieces, which should be well drained. Cook, stirring, for 5-6 minutes, then return the diced pancetta to the pot and heat it through. Drain the pasta while it's still a little al dente, turn it into the skillet with the sauce, cook a minute more more, stirring the pasta to coat the strands, and serve, with grated pecorino.
