  • If you'd like to see the measurements in CUPS and OUNCES, please click on the US CUSTOMARY link.
  • The amount of ingredients can be adjusted according to the number of servings you need, please click on the number of servings to change it.
  • For my recipe l opted for fresh salmon baked in the oven. It's healthier, it's tasty, no need for anything fancy.
  • Or you can choose smoked salmon, that's another good option. Perhaps even canned salmon.
  • Once the sauce is ready, mix it with the pasta that had been cooked according to the packet instructions, then flake the salmon and add it to the spaghetti.
  • Dill is the best herb to garnish this dish, salmon and dill are a match made in heaven. And if you add a tad of lemon juice, you know you are in for a treat. They balance well the richness of the cream, bringing a fresh touch to the dish, which could otherwise feel a tad heavy.
