Woolworths is committed to sustainability via our good business journey. Seasonal (and other) products might not always be in stock.

Ingredients

1 T olive oil
250 g leftover gammon, cut into chunks or shredded
2 T maple syrup (optional)
50 g butter
4 garlic cloves, chopped
5 g thyme
1 cup cream
1x 250 g bag Woolworths fresh tagliatelle or fettuccine pasta
1 lemon, halved
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Parmesan, grated, for serving

Cooking Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a pan and sauté the gammon over a high heat until crisp and golden brown . Add the maple syrup and toss to coat.
2. Remove gammon from the pan and set aside. Reduce the heat and add the butter and 1 T olive oil to the same pan. Fry the garlic for a few seconds, then add the thyme and cream and simmer for 5 minutes. Season to taste.
3. Cook the pasta until al dente, reserving some of the cooking water. Toss the pasta through the hot sauce in the pan to coat, adding 1 T pasta water at a time until glossy. Serve hot out of the pan with lots of grated cheese and the gammon.
