Original recipe from Fusion on the Fly, http://chefprivato.blogspot.com. I changed the shallots to onions and cream to 2% milk, and left out frozen peas. He only calls for 3 cups of stock, but we tend to use 4. That could be something to do with our dry climate (I find I have to add liquid to a lot of recipes). Those are his instructions, though. You could try replacing the pancetta with turkey bacon to cut down on fat and calories, and you can leave the milk and/or egg out entirely.
