Instructions
- Wash and chop the parsley, peel and finely chop the onion and cut the smoked salmon into small pieces.
- Purée half the salmon with the cream until you have a smooth creamy sauce. Add milk if it seems too thick.
- Melt the butter in a deep skillet or frying pan. It needs to be big enoughto add the pasta in later. Sayté the chopped onion until it softens. Then, add the remaining salmon pieces and sauté for just a minute.
- Mix in the salmon cream with the cooked salmon and onion. Cook for just a minute and add salt and pepper to taste.
- Put a pot of water onto boil for the pasta. Add salt once it starts to boil and bring to the boil again. Cook the pasta al dente according to the instructions on the packet. Save a cup of pasta cooking water. Then drain the pasta and add it to the sauce.
- Mix the pasta and sauce together over a very low heat. Add some pasta cooking water to get a creamier and more liquid result if the sauce seems dry. Add some of the fresh parsley.
- Turn off the heat, sprinkle with more fresh parsley and serve immediately.
Notes
- Italians don’t usually serve fish pasta with cheese. However, you can, of course, sprinkle the finished dish with some grated Parmigiano if you like.
- You can use short pasta like penne for this recipe or egg noodles such as tagliatelle or tagliolini.
