    queenie_nyc's Notes:

    This is a dish I created to celebrate the annual arrival of ramps to the Greenmarket. I typically eat it for an early lunch on the first Saturday of the season. - queenie_nyc

Serves 1

  1. Set a medium skillet over high heat; heat until hot. Turn heat down to medium high and add the bacon to the pan. Cook slowly, rendering the fat until the bacon is just crispy. Remove the bacon pieces with a slotted spoon and set aside to cool.

  2. Add the ramps to the pain and saute them in the bacon fat, cooking until the white parts begin to brown. Season (lightly) with salt and pepper, and return the bacon to the pan. Add the fettucine and stir with tongs to combine the sauce with the pasta, adding a little pasta water if things need moisture. Turn off the heat.

  3. In a small skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once it's hot, crack the egg into the pan and fry until the edges just begin to turn crispy. Mound the pasta on a plate or in a bowl, top with the fried egg and Parmesan cheese, season to taste, and eat!

I have been eyeing this recipe since you posted it. I would have made it, but I was out of town all week. If I can find ramps, I am definitely making it soon. I will be back bugging WF tomorrow!
