Pasta with Ham and Swiss Cheese
by The Pirate Chef
Ingredients:
1 lb of Farfalle (bow tie) pasta
1/2 lb of thin-sliced ham (I like the smoked ham)
1/4 lb of baby swiss cheese*
1/4 lb of butter
Directions:
1) Cook the pasta till al dente per the instructions on the box
2) Grate the swiss cheese
3) Roll the ham slices into tubes
4) Heat the butter in a small pan on medium heat, stirring frequently, until it starts to foam. When you start to see some brownish foam, remove from heat immediately!
5) Place pasta in your bowl, sprinkle a layer of swiss cheese on top, tear the ham rolls into small bits and layer on top of cheese, and then drizzle the browned milk solids from the butter pan on top (these will be hiding at the bottom of the pan).
6) Stir and enjoy!
This makes enough for about 4-6 servings
* DO NOT use pre-shredded cheese! It's coated with a chemical that prevents it from clumping in the back and also makes it hard to melt compared to grating it yourself.
Cook or die!
