Yield Serves 2 to 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces penne
1 pound Garrotxa, shredded
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup crème fraîche
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
1/3 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
6 ounces serrano ham slices, torn coarsely by hand into chunks

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • 2. Cook the pasta in salted boiling water until al dente. Drain through a colander. Set aside.
  • 3. In a saucepan, combine cheese, milk, crème fraîche, and butter. Cook over medium-low heat until cheese is mostly melted and you have a creamy sauce. To keep the cheese sauce from breaking, remove the sauce from the heat before the cheese is entirely melted. Season with pepper, adding more to taste if you like.
  • 4. In a shallow buttered casserole dish, toss pasta with sun-dried tomatoes and Serrano ham. Pour the sauce over the pasta, then stir together until combined. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the top is golden brown and bubbling around the edges. Serve immediately.

I made this dish for a potluck and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved the combination of flavors and textures. I'll definitely be making it again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover ham. The sauce is creamy and flavorful, and the ham and tomatoes add a nice salty and tangy touch. I served it with a side of roasted vegetables, and it was a perfect meal.

I'm not usually a fan of sun-dried tomatoes, but they really work well in this dish. The combination of flavors is just perfect. I'll definitely be making this again.

Not sure what went wrong, but my sauce turned out really watery. The flavor was also a bit off. Maybe I'll try again with a different recipe.

Meh. The sauce was a bit too bland for my taste, and the ham was a bit dry. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
