Emi's Pasta

Emi's Pasta
 
- haven't followed any cookery book, just made it this way to be fast and tasty (for 5 years by now.)

Ingredients:(for 2 portions) 
                      :  pasta 0.66 pounds (300 grams)
                      :  0.44 pounds (200 grams) of pork ham
                      : 0.27 pounds (125 grams) of your regular cheese ( grate   it ) 
                      : 0.27 pounds (125 grams) of butter with sour cream sauce (we have it from the store, if you dont find any, you can mix quality butter with sour cream )
                      : 1 table spoon of oil
                      :  salt ( in the water that boils the pasta- but be moderate since the cheese and ham can be already extra salted)


 

- put 0.79 gal (3 L) of water in a cooking pot, then add 1 table spoon of salt,  when it starts to boil add the pasta -
- do not mind the instructions on the pasta label about the time they claim it would boil, normally it boils in 15 minutes, but you can always take 1 out and taste it 
- when its ready, strain the pasta over a sink, and let the cold water a few seconds over the pasta in the strainer, then set aside. 


- take a big pan (to fit all the pasta),add a bit of oil, then add the butter with sour cream sauce    - let it melt  on medium heat while mixing 




 

-next add all the grated cheese, and mix it all  
together at medium heat till it melts 





 

 -after that add the pasta, mix it all until that "sauce"  covers the pasta

-gradually add the cut ham as you gently blend it with the pasta

 





-move on 2 plates and serve it warm
