Is this pasta?
Cappelletti means “little hats” in Italian and we’ve swapped the pasta dough for D’Orsogna Premium Ham. Light, flavourful, and ready in minutes — it’s Italian comfort with a tasty twist.

🛒 INGREDIENTS (Serves 2):
200g @dorsognasmallgoods Premium Ham (about 2 packs, round slices work best)
150g ricotta
1 tbsp chopped chives (or ciboulette)
Salt & pepper to taste
Tomato sauce, grated Parmesan, and fresh basil to serve
👩🍳 STEP-BY-STEP:
Mix the filling: Combine ricotta, chives, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Shape the hats: Place a teaspoon of filling in the centre of each ham slice, fold into a semicircle, then twist the corners to create the “little hat” shape.
Keep them in place: Arrange in a mini muffin tray so they hold their form.
Bake to perfection: 180°C for 10 minutes until firm.
Serve & enjoy: Plate with warm tomato sauce, Parmesan, and basil.
No pasta, no problem — just pure Italian-inspired comfort food.
