Get a decent sized frying pan on medium heat and add a glug of olive oil. Start frying off the bacon and stir around occasionally until you get a slight brown colour but try not to make the bacon really crispy. Next add the garlic (be careful not to burn it) for about a minute.

Add the cooked Linguine and parsley and toss/mix everything together, you may find that the pasta sticks together, if so add the water that you scooped out a bit a a time to get a nice silkiness and make sure the pasta gets heated up.

Turn the heat off the leave for about 30 seconds-1 minute just to slightly cool down just to ensure the egg content in the sauce won't scramble. Add the sauce and use a pair of tongs to stir through. Make sure all the pasta is covered.
