Fall in love with these little nests of crispy spaghetti, beautifully topped with delicate shavings of cheese. Perfect to enjoy as a snack in one bite!

Ingredients
 100 raw spaghetti
 2 parma ham
 1 large red onion
 1 clove garlic
 a few basil leaves
 1 olive oil
 1 balsamic vinegar
 1 pine nuts
 sea salt pepper
Directions
1

Preheat the oven to 210°C. Submerge the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water for the time indicated on the package (about 8 minutes).

2

When they are cooked al dente, drain them. Wrap a small amount around a fork and place these nests in the cavities of a silicone muffin pan. Peel and crush the garlic clove. Mix with olive oil and 2-3 chopped basil leaves. Drizzle over the pasta, then bake for 10 minutes.

3

In the meantime, peel and slice the onion. Cook it down in a pot with a little olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and 100ml of water. After about ten minutes, remove from heat and let it cool.

4

Remove the nests from the oven and place them on a serving dish. Once slightly cooled, fill them with onion compote. Garnish with strips of ham, pine nuts, and a basil leaf. Season with salt and pepper. Finish by placing some nice shavings on top. Serve immediately.

To finish, the Goat Trick: Delicious also with a fig compote, replacing the red onion with dried figs.
