- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 1 leek, finely chopped
- 2 thin slices smoked ham, finely chopped
- 25g fresh parsley, chopped

Directions
6 steps in totalStep 1
Cook the pasta according to the packet instructions (wholemeal takes a couple of minutes longer than white pasta, so needs to be added to the pan first.)
Step 2
Meanwhile, add a dash of olive oil to a large saucepan, add the onion and leeks and cook until soft but not browned. Add the ham and half the parsley.
Step 3
In a bowl beat the eggs, yogurt, pepper and half the Parmesan.
Step 4
Add the cooked drained pasta to the saucepan, mix well with the onion, leeks and ham and remove from heat.
Step 5
Add the egg mixture and stir quickly and thoroughly (the heat from the pasta will cook the egg).
Step 6
Stir in the olive oil and the remaining Parmesan and parsley. Add a few grinds of black pepper and a sprinkle of basil. Serve immediately.
