  1. Step 1

    Cook the pasta in a large saucepan of boiling water following packet directions or until al dente. Drain, reserving ¾ cup (185ml) cooking liquid.

    Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Cook the prosciutto, turning, for 2 mins or until crisp. Transfer to a plate.
  3. Step 3

    Add tomato to the pan and cook, stirring, for 3 mins or until tomato begins to soften and split. Add the spinach and cook for 1 min or until spinach just wilts. Add the spaghetti, reserved cooking liquid and pesto. Toss to combine.
  4. Step 4

    Break the prosciutto into large shards. Add to the pasta and toss to combine. Divide among serving plates. Top with parmesan.
