Serves: 6 + leftovers
I love eggs and pasta and typical carbonara is the best. But I decided to blend tomato sauce, ham and eggs to kick this one up a notch. Served with Multigrain Baguettes to clean our plate and a Side Salad, this is a full meal.
It can easily be made a vegetarian meal if you omit the ham.
Ingredients
900 grams dried pasta
¼ cup olive oil
1 tbsp butter
1 shallot finely chopped
1 cup chopped ham
1 tsp minced garlic
1 small can tomato paste
1 tsp salt
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp dried parsley
1 tsp dried basil
6 eggs
¼ cup grated parmesan + for serving on pasta
Directions
Cook pasta per directions
In a large skillet heat oil and melt butter on high heat
Add shallots and ham and sauté until shallots are translucent (about 3 minutes)
Stir in garlic and sauté for a minute then stir in tomato paste and sauté for two minutes
Add salt, paprika, parsley and basil and sauté for a minute to let the spices flavour the sauce
Crack eggs in a bowl and pour into sauce. Using a wooden spoon stir everything delicately until eggs are fully cooked
