Preparation steps
1.
Cook the ribbon pasta in boiling, salted water until al dente. Drain, refresh with cold water then drain again.
2.
Separate the eggs. Mix the cream and the crème fraîche with the egg yolks until smooth. Stir in the grated cheese and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Add the diced ham and mix well with the ribbon pasta. Whisk the egg whites until stiff, then fold into the pasta.
