Working time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 20 minutes

Dice the ham or cut into thin strips. Peel and finely dice the onion. Cook the spaghetti in salted water according to the package instructions until al dente. Heat 20g of butter. Fry the diced onion while stirring until translucent. Add the diced ham and fry briefly. Pour in the cream and let the sauce simmer for about 1 minute. Whisk the eggs and egg yolks vigorously. First, stir in a few tablespoons of hot ham and cream sauce to prevent the sauce from curdling. Then stir the egg mixture into the hot ham and cream sauce, stirring constantly. The sauce should no longer be boiling. Add the Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper. Drain the spaghetti and let it drain well. Transfer to a preheated bowl and toss with the softened butter. Immediately mix with the ham and cream sauce.
