1

Bring a pot with plenty of water and a little salt to the boil. Then pour the rigatoni and cook al dente.

2

Pour the oil into a pan and then add the fresh sausage and the bacon previously cut into slices. Cook over high heat until the guanciale is crispy.

3

Now add the halved cherry tomatoes and cook for at least 10 minutes.

4

Once the rigatoni are cooked, pour them into the pan with the sauce and mix everything well.

Now with the heat off, add the egg yolk and plenty of Pecorino Romano to the pan. *If you prefer, you can also cream the yolk and pecorino cream in a bowl and then pour it into the pan. We have done everything in the pan and we assure you that the result is really creamy.
