Fettuccini With Ham and Mushrooms


This is a delicious, easy to make recipe that can be made any night of the week.

1lb of fettuccini (homemade is the best if you can make it)
10 ounces of mushrooms (you can try a mix to make things more interesting.)
3 spring onions chopped
4-6 sliced of cooked ham. (great to use ham leftovers) You can also use pancetta.
2 ounces of butter
1 ¼ cups of heavy cream
Chopped fresh parsley to taste

 Instructions:

 Cook the fettuccini in boiling salted water until al dente. Drain and return to pan.

 While the fettuccini is cooking slice the mushroom, spring onions, and the ham. Heat the butter and cook the ham, spring onions for about 3 minutes then add the mushrooms and cook for about another five minutes stirring occasionally. Add the cream, half the parsley, salt and pepper to taste. Simmer until sauce thickens. Add the sauce to the fettuccini and toss well. Serve immediately and sprinkle with remaining parsley.
