Instructions

- Add cream and cook stirring occasionally until sauce is thick
- Cook pasta according to instructions
- Drain pasta reserving a couple of tablespoons of the cooking water
- Add butter to pasta and stir though until coating pasta
- Add egg yolks to pasta and again stir till coated (the eggs are not raw at this point as they have used the heat in the pasta to cook onto it making it silky)
