Penne Al Baffo
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil.

  2. Heat a large pan to medium heat and saute the onions in the butter and olive oil until soft (about 3 minutes). Add the ham and cook for a couple of minutes.

  3. At this time begin cooking the pasta to 1 minute less than al dente.

  4. Add the passata to the pan and bring the sauce to a simmer. After about 5 minutes of cooking the sauce, add the cream and continue to gently simmer, stirring occasionally.

  5. Add the not quite fully cooked pasta to the sauce. Mix well or toss to coat. Cook until the pasta reaches just al dente. If too dry add some of the reserved pasta water to loosen it up.

  6. Remove the pan from the heat and mix in the parsley. Taste test and adjust salt and pepper to taste. At this time you could mix in some Parmigiano or just serve as is with grated cheese on the table. Enjoy!
