Daisy Meyer

Report

This very easy to make creamy tagliolini pasta au gratin recipe is based on Cipriani's famous baked tagliolini. This version includes fresh cream instead of béchamel. So simple to make and so delicious this is also a great way to use up leftover holiday ham!

Instructions

Put a pot of water on to boil for the pasta. When it starts to boil, add salt and bring to the boil again.
Cut the cooked ham into small pieces.
In a bowl, whisk the cream together with the egg yolks, salt and pepper.
Add the cooked ham and mix.
Cook the pasta al dente in the boiling salted water according to the instructions on the packet. Save a cup of the cooking water when the pasta is almost cooked.
Drain the pasta and return it to the pan or pour into a large bowl. Add the butter and most of the grated Parmigiano cheese. Mix well. If necessary add a little of the pasta cooking water to get a creamy consistency.
Add the ham and cream mixture to the pasta and mix again. Then pour everything into a buttered oven dish. Sprinkle with more grated Parmigiano and add some small pieces of butter.
Bake in a hot 180 °c oven (356°F) for about 15 minutes until the top is crispy and golden. Wait 2-3 minutes before serving the tagliolini au gratin. Serve with a sprinkling of chopped fresh parsley.

Notes

The recipe can be made with tagliatelle too. Use egg pasta for best results.
