PASTA SUBITO BY LUCIANO PAVAROTTI
I tore this recipe out of a "Travel and Leisure Magazine" in December of 1993 on one of my trips to Europe on business. At the time it was the most popular recipe they ever published. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. We generally serve freshly grated parmigiano reggiano cheese with the dish.

Steps:
- First, sing the tenor part of an opera (preferably Verde). Then go to a friends house and find a large mixing bowl. Lovenly place all the ingredients (per favore, not the spaghetti) into the bowl and mix with an available device - not your hands please.
- Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti in plenty of rapidly boiling water, but not until it's mush, rather al dentissimo, on the hard side. Drain please.
- Now caro, take the largest available bowl and mix the steaming hot spaghetti and the sauce with speed and precision. Put it on the table, pour a big glass of Brunello di Montalcino (at least 20 years old) and, for the moment, disregard the world around you.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to boil and salt it. Meanwhile, put 1 tablespoon oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add prosciutto and cook, turning occasionally, until crisp, about 4 to 5 minutes; set aside.
- When water boils, add pasta and cook until just tender; drain pasta, reserving some cooking liquid. Meanwhile, melt butter with remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallot and sprinkle with salt and pepper; cook until shallot begins to soften, about 5 minutes.
- Add peas, lettuce, and stock or wine to skillet and cook until peas turn bright green and lettuce is wilted, about 5 minutes. Add pasta to pan and continue cooking and stirring until everything is just heated through, adding extra stock or some reserved cooking liquid if needed to moisten. Toss with Parmesan cheese, garnish with prosciutto, adjust seasoning to taste and serve.
