Step:
Prep the meat. Start cooking the pasta in salted water. Cut into cubes, save the fat and rind for flavour. Fry in a little oil for 4-5 mins on a medium heat
When it's cooked, remove the fat and rind so you're left with just the cubes of meat. Saved a ladle of cooking water (important!!!) in a cup. Drain pasta 1 min before cooking time, add to meat, add pecorino. Mix. Add cooking water, mix. Add pepper, mix. Serve immediately with a little extra pecorino cheese :)
Ingredients
509 g spaghetti
150 g pig's cheek or belly pork, pancetta
Lots of pecorino (100 g ish)
Lots of pepper
Salt
Olive oil
