Pasta, spaghetti or pasta is one of the favorite foods for many people. In addition, they can be made even when there is nothing else in the refrigerator. All you need to create this dish is a small amount of pasta, some good cheese and a fresh egg. The hot pasta melts the cheese, and the poached egg spreads through the platter, forming a thick, buttery sauce that envelops each macaroni. This is the best ratio of products, where the least effort is expended and the result is excellent.
Of course, as in any other recipe, the quality of the products is just as important here. Since the egg remains half-baked, you need to know for sure that it is fresh and safe. The cheese guarantees an excellent taste, so its shelf life should not be exceeded. Any hard cheese is suitable for the recipe, even smoked suluguni. Take pasta from durum wheat of some unusual shape, for example, spirals, bows, shells. If desired, the dish can be prepared not with one, but with several poached eggs, supplemented with slices of bacon or smoked lard with thin meat layers.
