1 tablespoon heavy cream (or so)
some olive oil
3 shallots, sliced thin
2-3 cloves garlic, smashed and or minced

Boil water for spaghetti as you normally would.
Mix egg yolks and cream together and set aside.
In a saute pan, place olive oil, bacon, and garlic, to cook over low heat, till bacon is crisp.
When done, add shallots mix for half a minute or so, and pull from heat.
Drain pasta and place into a large pot or bowl.
Add bacon mix and toss once.
Add egg/cream mix and cheese, toss again.
