Chef tips
To achieve a glossy, creamy sauce without the eggs curdling, whisk them with a splash of the pasta water before stirring into the pan off the heat. For a rich, kosher version, try smoked goose or seared pastrami. Children enjoy helping to whisk the eggs and adding plenty of cracked black pepper at the end.
