Ham, linguine, and Parmesan, how could you not love this recipe! Make this mouth-watering linguine carbonara with ham at home and enjoy it on the road!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 pound fresh linguine
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup onion, finely diced
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 cups ham, diced
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Heat olive oil and cook ham, garlic and onions over medium heat until onion is translucent. Add wine and let reduce until almost evaporated.
  2. In a bowl, stir together egg yolks, eggs and Parmesan cheese. Set aside.
  3. Cook pasta & peas together in a large pot of salted water just until pasta is is firm to the bite. Drain pasta ensuring that you reserve 1 1/2 cups of the cooking liquid.
