This is a family favourite. My son doesn't like courgettes, but loves this dish!
Ham and Courgette Pasta
Diced ham steaks are ideal for using in pasta dishes – teamed here with courgettes and Wattie’s Creamy Herb and Garlic Pasta Sauce.
Ingredients
- 4 cups shell pasta (large or small)

- 1/2 cup milk, chicken stock or water
Method
1. Cook the pasta in the boiling salted water for 12-15 minutes until al-dente (firm to the bite). Drain well and toss in a dash of oil. Keep warm.
2. Heat a dash of oil in a frying pan and add the courgettes and spring onion and cook over a moderately high heat for about 5 minutes, stirring regularly.
3. Add the diced 100% New Zealand Pork Ham Steaks and Wattie’s Creasmy Herb and Garlic Pasta Sauce and milk, stock or water. Simmer for 3-4 minute until hot.
4. Toss the well-drained pasta through the sauce and serve.
