Fresh pasta with garlic butter and Serrano ham

For my first proper shop at Borough Market, I allowed myself to wander around and buy the things I always had wanted to before but never could because of having to lug the stuff home on the tube.

As I didn't really have specific recipes in mind I ended up with a jumbled mish-mash of ingredients that went surprisingly well together. Today I had a lovely light lunch of fresh egg tagliatelle, topped with a few corners of divine garlic and chive butter (bought from a stall specialising in butter and yoghurt - only in Borough), which melted slowly into the pasta. Topping it all off were a few small slices of Serrano ham from Brindisa. Light, tasty and satisfyingly savoury without being too naughty.

Price:
- 2.50 for fresh egg tagliatelle (used 1/2)
- 2.00 for big slice of garlic & chive butter (used 2 corners)
- 5 small slices of Serrano ham (3.50 for 50 grams)
