I found this recipe in an old magazine that featured pasta recipes from famous Italian-Americans. I first made this dish with regular ham. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 large onion, sliced |
1 (35 ounce) can italian plum tomatoes, crushed, undrained |
10 -12 fresh basil leaves, chopped or 1 teaspoon dried basil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 cup julienned prosciutto ham |
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine |
1 lb linguine |
parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. In a 3 quart saucepan heat olive oil. Add onion and saute until golden brown.
2. Add can tomatoes, basil, salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Lower heat, cover and simmer 30 minutes. Add prosciutto and butter and simmer 15 minutes more. Keep covered while linguine is cooking.
3. Cook linguine according to package directions for al dente. Drain and toss with sauce. Serve on warm platter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
