Turkey Ham Noodles with Egg

Ribbon noodles fried in a pan with turkey ham, set with egg and generously sprinkled with chives.

Ingredients · for 4 servings

• 400 g erişte (Turkish ribbon noodles)
• 250 g turkey ham
• 4 eggs
• 1 onion
• 3 tbsp butter
• 100 ml cream
• 1 bunch chives
• 1 pinch nutmeg
• Salt, pepper

Instructions

1. Cook the noodles in salted water until al dente, drain and let drain briefly; cut the turkey ham into narrow strips and the onion into fine dice.
2. Heat the butter in a large pan and fry the onion with the ham strips for 4–5 min. over medium heat, until the ham browns lightly at the edges.
3. Add the drained noodles and fry for 3–4 min. more, turning only occasionally so crispy spots form on the bottom.
4. Whisk the eggs with the cream, nutmeg, salt and pepper and pour evenly over the noodles.
5. Let set over medium heat for 2–3 min., gently folding once from the bottom, until the egg mixture is creamy-set but not dry.
6. Remove from the heat, sprinkle generously with chive rings and serve straight from the pan with a green salad.
