1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 dash nutmeg |
1 dash sage |
fresh ground pepper |
1 cup heavy cream, divided |
boiling water |
8 ounces fettuccine pasta |
8 ounces spinach fettuccine |
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. In medium skillet, sauté onions and garlic in 1/4 cup butter until onion is golden.
2. Stir in ham, mushrooms, basil, salt, nutmeg, sage, thyme and pepper; sauté 3 minutes.
3. Stir in 1/2 cup cream.
4. Cook, stirring until slightly thickened.
5. Remove from heat and set aside.
6. In large deep skillet, melt remaining butter over low heat, blend in remaining 1/2 cup cream.
7. Add pasta; toss lightly to coat with sauce.
8. Add 1/2 ham and mushroom sauce and Parmesan cheese.
9. Toss thoroughly.
10. Make a well in the center of the pasta; pour in remaining ham and mushroom sauce.
