Ingredients100g smoked salmon or trout per person (trout is cheaper and works just a well)75g pasta per person - fusilli or penne work well Generous helping of broccoli Generous helping of peas Any other green veg your family will eat 1 tbsp double cream 1 small onion or shallot |
Handy HintAdd any veg you like, the sort of things that work in stir frys work well here. We always add peas as they're popular in our house, they're good for you and it's easy to keep a bag in the freezer for emergency veg! |

MethodChop the onion or shallot very finely, fry in a little bit of olive oil until soft. Meanwhile cook the pasta according to instructions on packet. Flake the smoked fish with a fork until it's in lots of little pieces and remove any bones that might have sneaked in. Cook the veg.Add the cream to the pan with the onion in it and allow to bubble so that the cream thickens. Add the smoked fish. Combine this sauce with the pasta and green veg and mix it all up. Serve. | |||||||||||||||||||
