My wife and I are pasta lovers, and after we tried this dish at an Italian restaurant, I thought I could improve on it. I enjoy making pasta sauces, and this is one dish we like to serve to our pasta-loving friends. Ingredients:
4 ounces uncooked fettuccine |
1/4 cup butter |
1 tablespoon king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 cup milk |
1 egg yolk, beaten |
3/4 cup shredded swiss cheese |
1/2 cup chopped fully cooked ham |
1/2 cup frozen green peas |
1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Cook fettuccine according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a heavy saucepan, melt butter; stir in flour until smooth. Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat.
2. Stir a small amount of hot mixture into egg yolks; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Add Swiss cheese; cook and stir over low heat for 1 minute or until cheese is melted. Add ham and peas; cook 2 minutes longer or until heated through. Drain the fettuccine; top with ham mixture and Parmesan cheese. Yield: 2 servings.
