Spaghetti with Pesto Barilla alla Genovese, crunchy ham and burrata

25 minutes total

Four simple high quality ingredients are used in this beautifully light yet flavoursome dish. Frying the culatello ham (you could substitute Parma Ham if needs be) brings an intense flavour and wonderful crispiness to it, complimenting the creamy burrata and Pesto Barilla alla Genovese, which combined with the Barilla Spaghetti, makes for a perfect light dish.

Ingredients

Serves 2

160g Barilla Spaghetti
50g Culatello raw ham, thinly sliced into 3mm ribbons
100g Pesto Barilla alla Genovese
100g Burrata
