Pasta au Gratin

  • For : 4 servings
  • Time : 20 minutes
  • Difficulty : easy

Ingredients for Pasta au Gratin :

  • 400 g fresh pasta
  • 2 slices ham
  • 100 g butter
  • 4 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
  • salt
  • pepper
  • For the Bechamel
  • 40 g butter
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 40 cl milk
  • salt

Technical stages for Pasta au Gratin :

  • Bring a large amount of salted water to a boiling point to cook the pasta. Meanwhile, prepare a fairly fluid bechamel sauce with the ingredients aforementioned. Keep warm over very low heat, stirring occasionally.
  • Cut the ham in 3-4 cm-large (1,18-1,57 inches) strips, then in 2-3 mm-thick sticks.
  • Cook the pasta (al dente). Drain. Melt 100 g butter in a large pan, add the ham, and the pasta immediately after that. Mix for a few seconds over strong heat, without letting it brown. Put the pasta in a large gratin dish. Pour the bechamel and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Bake in warm oven at 240°C or 464°F, just enough time to give the cheese a nice golden color.
