Tips:

  • Choose the right pasta: Bow-tie pasta, also known as farfalle, is a classic choice for this dish, but you can also use other short pasta shapes like penne or rotini.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: This means cooking it until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and not hold its shape well in the sauce.
  • Use fresh or frozen peas: If you are using fresh peas, shell them before cooking. Frozen peas can be used without thawing.
  • Cook the ham until it is browned: This will help to bring out its flavor and make it more crispy.
  • Use a good quality cheese: Parmesan cheese is a classic choice for this dish, but you can also use other hard cheeses like Romano or Asiago.
  • Serve the pasta immediately: This dish is best served hot, so make sure to serve it as soon as it is finished cooking.

Conclusion:

Bow-tie pasta with peas and ham is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover ham. The combination of bow-tie pasta, peas, ham, and cheese is a classic flavor combination that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a simple and delicious pasta dish, give this recipe a try.
