Broccoli and Ham Cream Cheese Pasta
- 80 grams Pasta of your choice (I used fettuccine)
- 1/2 Broccoli
- 2 strips Ham (or bacon)
- 1/8 to 1/4 Onion
- 1/2 topping Garlic
- 20 to 30 grams Cream cheese
- 2 tsp Olive oil
- 1 Krazy Salt (a generous sprinkling)
- 1/2 tsp Soup stock granules
- 1 Powdered cheese (topping), as desired
- Cut the broccoli stems into strips, and throw away the hard stems.
- Julienne the ham, garlic, and onion.
- Boil plenty of water and add salt (not listed; not needed for fettuccine).
- Add the pasta and broccoli and boil.
- Add olive oil and garlic to a pan and cook on low heat until fragrant, then add the onions.
- When the onion has turned transparent, add the ham.
- Add the cream cheese, 30 ml of pasta water, and the soup stock to Step 3.
- Mix the cheese well (if the pasta isn't done, stop the heat).
- On low heat, add the boiled and drained pasta and the broccoli, and mix the broccoli while breaking it up.
- Sprinkle Krazy Salt and toss.
- Plate and you're finished.
- Sprinkle powdered cheese on top to your liking.
- User "Nekozame" made a different version using pizza cheese instead of cream cheese.
- Looks delicious, and using cheese you have stocked in your fridge is a simpler twist.
