Preparation

Step 1

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti until al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

2. Melt butter in a 6-qt. saucepan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until
vegetables are golden brown, 10–12 minutes. Add ham and cook until lightly browned, 6–8 minutes more. Stir in long beans,
milk, sake, ketchup, paprika, salt, and pepper; bring to a boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until beans are just tender, about 3 minutes. Add reserved spaghetti to saucepan and toss in sauce to coat. Cook until pasta is warmed through, 1–2 minutes.

3. Divide spaghetti and sauce between serving bowls. Sprinkle with parmesan and serve with Tabasco, if you like.
