Steps

30 mins

1

Melt butter in a medium saucepan, add onions and cook until translucent.
2

Add garlic and cook until it becomes fragrant.
3

Add flour, stir well and cook until bubbly and golden.
4

Add cream, bring to a boil. Careful not to overcook. It will raise fast and cause a mess if one is not careful. (Done it before)
5

Lower heat and let sauce simmer. Add seasoning, pepper and paprika. DO NOT add salt at this time.
6

When the sauce has thickened, Add mushrooms and ham.
7

Increase heat to a slow boil and cook until the mushrooms soften. I like mine with a little bite left in them.
8

Season to taste with additional Italian seasoning, salt, pepper. Serve over pasta, sprinkle with fresh grated parmesan.
