Fettuccine al salmone affumicato (Fettucini with Smoked Salmon Cream Sauce)

Bring something special to the table with this well-loved recipe.

Total Time
30 mins
Course: Main Course , Soup

Ingredients

  • 500 g 1 lb fettuccine or other pasta (see Notes)
  • 250 g 8 oz smoked salmon, roughly cut up
  • 500 ml 1 pint heavy (aka double) cream
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Cook your pasta al dente in well-salted boiling water.
  2. Meanwhile, melt some butter in a skillet, then add heavy cream and roughly cut up smoked salmon. Simmer until the cream has reduced to a saucy consistency and the salmon has imparted its wonderful flavor to the cream.
  3. Add your cooked fettuccine to the sauce and toss. Add a bit more cream if need be, making sure that the pasta still 'flows' rather loosely—fresh pasta tends to absorb its sauce quickly, and creamy ones especially quickly.
  4. Serve your Smoked Salmon Fettuccine right away. No pasta should wait, but this one especially.
