Cacio E Pepe Egg Noodles


🛒 Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs

  • Kosher salt, to taste

  • 2 teaspoons canola oil, divided

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving

  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped

  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste


🍳 Directions

Step 1:
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Season with salt and whisk until smooth.

Step 2:
Heat 1 teaspoon canola oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Pour in half the egg mixture and swirl the pan to evenly coat the bottom.
Cook undisturbed until the edges are set, about 1 minute.

Step 3:
Gently run a spatula along the edge of the egg to loosen it, then carefully flip using your hands or a spatula.
Cook until just set on the bottom, about 20 seconds.

Step 4:
Slide the omelet onto a cutting board and let cool for 1 minute.
Repeat with the remaining oil and egg mixture.
Once cooled slightly, roll each omelet into a cigar shape and slice into ¼-inch-thick “noodles.”

Step 5:
Return the skillet to medium-high heat and melt the butter.
Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the egg noodles, Parmesan, and parsley, and toss to combine.

Step 6:
Season with freshly ground black pepper and sprinkle with extra Parmesan before serving.
