For the Schinkenfleckerln, first bring salted water to a boil and cook the pasta al dente according to the package instructions.
Drain and set aside.
Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic, and cut the ham into small pieces as well.
Then heat the oil in a pot on the stove and sauté the chopped onion, garlic and ham until everything is lightly browned.
Then add the noodles and let them brown a little.
Season the fleckerl with salt and pepper and sprinkle with the grated cheese.

Sprinkle with the grated cheese and finish baking in the oven at 180° C (top and bottom heat) for about 12 to 15 minutes.
