Boil a pot of salted water.

Add 8 ounces of vermicelli or angel hair pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente.

Drain the pasta and let it cool.

In a bowl, whisk together 3 eggs, 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, and a couple of tablespoons of fresh parsley.

Add salt and black pepper to the egg mixture and stir to combine.

Heat olive oil in a large cast iron skillet to cover the bottom.

Mix the cooled pasta with the egg mixture until well combined.

Spread the mixture evenly in the skillet and cook on medium-high heat until a crust forms, about 7-8 minutes.

Carefully flip the mixture using a lid to help turn it over and cook the other side until golden brown.
