-5 tablespoons of Double cream
-1/2 cup of Chopped parsley

1 - In a saucepan (medium heat), sauté
the onions and the ham until they get
brown (about 3 minutes).
2 - Pour the vodka and turn the fire on high until the vodka catches on fire. Another option is to carefully ignite the vodka with a stove lighter, or simply don't ignite the vodka if you don't want to.
3 - When the fire is done, add the tomato paste and one cup of water, let cook for another 3 minutes on medium heat and then add the cream and the parsley.
4 - Combine the cooked pasta on the pan, turn the heat on maximum and mix the pasta in with the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, you can always add small spoons of the water that cooked the pasta.
5 - Serve with cheese and black pepper on the top.
