Someone gave me this recipe when I was looking for the east side mario's its good.

amatriciana recipe

1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 oz slab bacon or pancetta finely diced
3 T butter
2 - 14 1/2 oz (or 1 28 oz) can Italian plum tomatoes, crushed
1/2 chili pepper, broken into small pieces, or 1/4 t chili pepper flakes to taste
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup pecorino cheese
1 lb pasta, bucatini, penne or spaghetti
Pasta pot; saucepan or skillet (we use a large non-stick wok) large enough to fit all ingredients.

MELT butter in a large pan over medium heat.

SAUTÉ the onion until transparent - about 5 minutes.

ADD the chili and pancetta and sauté until onion is golden and the pancetta or bacon nice and crisp, about 8 to 10 minutes.

SET the pasta water to boil.

ADD tomatoes and cook over medium-high heat stirring occasionally, making sure sauce does not burn, about 15 minutes.

ADD salt to taste. Careful with the salt, as pancetta and or bacon are quite salty. You will also be adding the cheese, which is rather salty, too.

MEANWHILE cook the pasta.

WHEN done to taste, drain and pour into a warm serving bowl or directly into pan with the sauce, mix well adding grated cheese to taste and serve.

PASS extra cheese at table.

SPAGHETTI can be substituted for the bucatini and in a crunch, pennette.
