PASTA WITH HAM AND MUSHROOMS



Pasta with Ham and Mushrooms image

Extend the life of leftover holiday ham beyond sandwiches and toss the salty meat with some mushrooms, cheese, and parsley for a quick and satisfying pasta dish anyone will love.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 ounces pasta
1 large yellow onion, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound sliced mushrooms
1 1/2 cups ham pieces
Chopped parsley
Grated Pecorino cheese

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in boiling salted water until al dente. Reserve 1/4 cup pasta water; drain pasta and return to pot. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, combine sliced large yellow onion with olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high until beginning to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Add sliced mushrooms; cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Add ham pieces; cook until warm. Toss with pasta, adding enough pasta water to create a sauce that coats pasta. Serve topped with chopped parsley and grated pecorino cheese.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for fresh vegetables, flavorful cheese, and a good quality ham.
  • Cook the spaghetti according to the package directions. Al dente pasta will hold its shape and provide a slight chew.
  • Do not overcook the ham. Ham can become tough if it is cooked for too long. Cook it just until it is heated through.
  • Add the peas and corn toward the end of cooking. This will prevent them from becoming overcooked and mushy.
  • Season the dish to taste. Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder until the flavors are balanced.
  • Serve the spaghetti with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and a side of crusty bread.

Conclusion:

Spaghetti with ham is a classic dish that is easy to make and always a hit. It is a versatile dish that can be tailored to your liking. Add different vegetables, cheeses, or herbs to create a unique and flavorful meal. Spaghetti with ham is a great weeknight meal that can be on the table in 30 minutes or less.
