Instead of going out for an Italian feast this week, why not whip up a gorgeous pasta dish at home?<\/p>\n
Mary Berry’s 15 minute pasta recipe, available at BBC Food, is the perfect dish to try. It’s tasty, full of flavour and can be cooked up in a flash.<\/p>\n
The beloved British baker said of the recipe: “This is my standby pasta supper as it is so delicious, so quick and everyone loves it. Great for everyday or for casual supper parties too.<\/p>\n
“Its base is a cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche pasta sauce and it’s topped with crispy Parma ham, which gives tons of flavour and great texture.”<\/p>\n
Mary’s recipe contains just eight ingredients, many of which you may already have at at home, so won’t have you traipsing around the supermarket for hours on end.<\/p>\n
