An everyday dish for 2, ready in 20 minutes, around $0.81 a serving. People actually plan it with Popotam, and it's in season in October.
Fill the saucepan halfway with water and bring it to a boil over high heat. Add a pinch of salt.
Drop the 160 g of pasta into the boiling water and let it cook for the time on the package (usually 8-10 min).
Using the knife and cutting board, cut the ham into small cubes of about 1 cm.
In the nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook the diced ham for 2 min without adding any fat, so it browns lightly.
Add the 120 g of frozen peas to the skillet with the ham. Stir well and let them cook for 3 min over medium heat.
Once the pasta is cooked, drain it in the colander and save a little cooking water (about 5 cl).
Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the ham and peas. Add the crème fraîche and a little of the saved cooking water. Mix well.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper if needed.
