If it takes too long or it's difficult to thicken with residual heat, add the pasta later. This dish is always good and pleases everyone!!

Cooking with just egg yolks produces a rich flavor, while using the whole egg tastes milder. The sauce thickens with residual heat, so you should stir thoroughly after adding egg liquid. If you use a bit more cheese, it's richer and more suited to adults. Recipe by Yuu choco mama

Steps

1

Beat half amount of milk, egg yolk (or whole egg) and cheese. Easy melting processed cheese should be in small pieces before adding.
2

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta for a little less than the time directed on the package, leaving it on the hard side.
3

Stir-fry garlic, onion and bacon with vegetable oil. It is possible cook without garlic, of course.
4

The photo shows 4 servings, without garlic and with bits of ham.
5

When the onion is wilted, add rest of the milk, sugar, salt and pepper, then bring to a boil. When it comes to boil, add pasta and stir it.
6

Remove from heat and add the egg mixture from Step 1, warming in the hot pan until the sauce thickens, and it's done.
7

Don't put the egg mixture before turning off the heat! It will harden.
8

Serve on a plate and sprinkle on black pepper.
9

If you have some leftover egg mixture, mix in 1 whole egg and pan-fry it like Japanese Okonomiyaki.
10

Top with melted cheese and 1 teaspoon of soy sauce, for a Western-style Okonomiyaki for next morning. It's a nice bonus recipe.
