Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams wide egg noodles
- 200 grams ham, diced
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 200 milliliters heavy cream
- 2 large eggs
- 50 grams grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper, freshly ground
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly butter a baking dish and set it aside.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles until slightly underdone (about 1 minute less than the package instructions suggest). Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the diced ham to the skillet and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, nutmeg, and black pepper until smooth.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked egg noodles, the ham and onion mixture, and the cream mixture. Toss gently to coat the noodles evenly.
Pour the noodle mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the dish is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. If desired, garnish with fresh parsley for added color and flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy this classic Austrian delight!
