Cuscino al Forno
You'll need
400gms Fettucine
8 large thin slices of Salty Ham
75gms ricotta cheese
75gms parmesan
1 tin chopped tomatoes
1 tin passat
1 mozzerella ball
fresh basil
salt and pepper
3 drops tabasco.
Method
Cook your pasta and set aside, in a seperate pot fry the onion and garlic until soft and add the tomatoes. Add the ricotta and parmesan, basil and seasonings... add the tabasco to taste. You want a tiny kick not a boot in the face!
Mix through the pasta. Place two slices of the ham overlapping lengthways in an oven tin. Twist some pasta around a fork and lay it into the middle of the ham, repeat until you have about 100gms/quarter of the pot and then wrap the ham around, edging it in until the bottom side of the ham is on the top and the ends neatly underneath.
Top with thin slices of the mozzerella and pop under a grill until cheese is bubbling!Serve with a nice green salad!

This is such a fun dish! I have never seen anything like it before.
Are you back from Italy? I need to check out your other blog. I have been sooooo busy. Not as much blogging as I like.
