I'm making pasta, creme fraiche and tinned salmon. What can I add to flavour it a bit?

Would Parmesan be weird? Chilli?

pinch of paprika

I never eat any sort of pasta without paremsan!

Actually I'd start with slowly cooking some onion and garlic, salt & pepper

Add the TEENIEST pinch of paprika, some herbs and your tinned salmon (baok at tinned salmon though ) and then your crame fraiche

paprika

black pepper, tarragon and maybe bit of lemon juice.

parmesan good.

Chilli could also be good depending on how you like it - I personally wouldn't be too fond of it with creme fraiche.

Italians would not approve of parmesan with fish. I think it works with salmon meself, although am not fond of salmon. Lemon might be nice, as long as it doesn't curdle the creme fraiche.

basil,or watercress

Bumperlicious · 19/07/2008 18:19

Yeah, wasn't sure about chilli and creme fraiche, but parmesan and fish? Do they go. Tinned salmon cheaper keeps in the cupboard MamaG. S'not bad.

LMAO

OverMyDeadBody · 19/07/2008 18:23

I'd make an onion and garlic base, like mamaG said.

Bumperlicious · 19/07/2008 18:24

It's skinless and boneless.

You are all confusing me with your contradictory views!

Ok, so paprika, tarragon, black pepper...parmesan or chilli?

I would add bacon and leave out the salmon

Bumperlicious · 19/07/2008 18:35

Thanks all, it's on, onion, garlic, grated courgette from my friend's garden, creme fraiche, paprika, tarragon, salmon. Hope it's good!

Thank you
