Pasta, Ham & Cream sauce
Farfalle (bowties) - ½ lb
Flour - 3 TBL
Butter - 3 TBL
Vegetable broth - 1 cup
Milk - ½ cup
Ham, diced - 4 oz
Peas - frozen, thawed - 1 cup
Oregano, ground - 1 tsp
Kosher salt - to taste
Black pepper, fresh ground - 2 pinches
Dry vermouth - ½ cup
Asiago cheese - grated
Whisk together the flour and soft butter and cook at a low heat. Blend in the warm milk and vegetable broth then whish in the seasoning. Let this cook at a low temp for a long time. If the sauce gets too thick just whisk in some dry vermouth.
Cook the farfalle in boiling water for about 10 minutes or until al dente.
Drain the pasta and stir in the diced ham and peas. Now mix in the cream sauce and sprinkle over a good amount of Asiago grated cheese on each serving. Serve each portion with some fresh crusty baguette.
