Ingredients
- 400 grams dry fettuccine pasta (or other pasta)
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 250 grams mushrooms (button, sliced)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 300 grams ham (diced, 2 cups)
- 1 cup cream
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, grated (fresh)
- 2 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
How to Make
-
Step 1: Cook fettuccine for 2 minutes less than the instructions on the packet.
-
Step 2: While the pasta cooks, heat butter in a heavy pot and cook mushrooms over medium heat until lightly brown (about 5 minutes) and then add garlic and sizzle for a few seconds and then add ham and cream, stirring to lift pan brownings and bring to a simmer.
-
Step 3: Mix in nutmeg, lemon juice, parmesan and salt and pepper to taste.
-
Step 4: Drain past, leaving about 1/4 cup water in the pot and add pasta and reserved past water to the pot with ham sauce and toss over heat for a minute or two to allow the pasta to absorb the flavour.
-
Step 5: To serve, pile into a serving bowl and top with more black pepper.
