Tips

It’s a remedy to leftover pasta (Spaghetti, Fettuccine, etc..) to create a new tasty dish. This recipe uses a stove-to-oven pan. If you don’t have one, you can use a baking dish, and tweak the procedure to a point where pasta will have to be transferred to a baking dish, mix the eggs, then bake in the oven.
