Notes

  • Add some extra sweetness by drizzling some extra balsamic over the spaghetti before serving.
  • If you don't want to cook the Parma Ham, then just curl the slices up and place on top before serving. The shallots could be roasted at the same time as the tomatoes.
  • Oregano is a nice addition to the tomatoes before they are roasted.
  • Mix things up and add some soft goats cheese to the dish isn't of parmesan.
