The pasta sauce is very quick to make, so gather all ingredients in advance. Prepare the farfalle according to the package instructions. Line each pasta dish with three slices of ham. Slice the onion into thin strips, quarter the tomatoes, remove any juice and seeds, and cut into small pieces. Sauté the onions in a large, deep pan with olive oil over medium heat until translucent. Add 2/3 of the diced tomatoes and continue to sauté until soft. Add the garlic, deglaze with the white wine and stock, and simmer until thickened. Season with salt, pepper, and chili. Add the remaining tomatoes, olives, and parsley. Drain the pasta and stir into the sauce. Heat briefly again. Divide among the dishes and sprinkle with freshly shaved Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately. Drink suggestion: a light red wine or Chardonnay. This recipe is an interpretation of our favorite Italian restaurant, Il Mondo. The pasta was placed into a hollowed-out Parmesan Reggiano and then scraped out again.
