Ingredients (4 servings)

1 lb. pasta (fettuccine or tagliatelle)

4 tablespoons butter

1 small onion, finely chopped

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup mushrooms, sliced

1 cup ham, diced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

½ teaspoon oregano, dried

Black pepper, to taste

Salt, to taste

Fresh parsley, for garnish

Preparation

Bring a suitable pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta as per the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside. Prepare the sauce: In a suitable skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent.

Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release their moisture and start to brown. Then add the diced ham and cook for a few more minutes until the ham is heated through.

Pour the heavy cream into the skillet with the mushrooms and ham. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and dried oregano. Reduce the heat to low and simmer the sauce for a few minutes until it thickens slightly. Season with black pepper and salt to taste.

Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the cream sauce. Toss the pasta gently to coat it evenly with the sauce.

Transfer the pasta con Salsa Caruso to serving plates or bowls. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve the pasta con Salsa Caruso while it's still warm. It pairs well with a fresh green salad and a glass of wine. Enjoy your Uruguayan-style pasta dish!
