Method

Preheat the oven to 190 °C (375 °F).
Cook the egg noodles in salted boiling water for 6 minutes; drain and set aside.
In a skillet, briefly wilt the spinach over medium heat—just until it sighs, about 1 minute.
Combine noodles, ham, spinach, cream, and half the parmesan in a greased baking dish; season with salt and pepper.
Sprinkle the remaining parmesan on top for a golden crown.
Bake for 20‑25 minutes, until bubbling and the cheese is bronzed.
Let it rest 3 minutes before serving, so the kingdom settles into peace.

If the cream threatens to curdle, whisk it with a splash of milk first—smoothness is the kingdom’s secret.

Our sommelier suggests Wear a glittery cape and read a bedtime story to the leftovers for a truly enchanted finish.

The verdict, please.
