🥗Healthier: pancetta

💰Cheaper: bacon

Pancetta is more accessible, while bacon offers a budget-friendly option.

Pecorino Romano cheese

🥗Healthier: Parmesan cheese

💰Cheaper: Grana Padano

Parmesan is a lower-fat alternative, and Grana Padano is often less expensive.

Start by cracking 2 whole eggs and adding 1 additional yolk into a bowl.

Grate in some Parmesan cheese into the egg mixture.

Add miso to the egg and cheese mixture.

Incorporate gochujang into the mixture for spice.

Add black pepper to taste.

Pour in 3 tablespoons of cream and mix everything together with a fork until smooth.

Set the egg mixture aside once combined.

In a pan, heat a little olive oil and add beef brisket to render out the fat slowly.

Cook the beef bacon until it starts to crisp up, then turn off the heat and set aside.

Boil water in a separate pot and add salt to it, then cook spaghetti according to package instructions.

Once the pasta is done, turn off the heat and add the egg, miso, cheese, and gochujang mixture to the pasta, tossing everything together.

Add chopped Chinese parsley and toasted sesame seeds on top before serving.
