Creamy Salmon and Pea Fusilli for you Miss Fisher

This one's for my Aussie friend Gina, she recently reminded me of this delicious recipe I shared with her while she was here in London. Sadly she's now back in Oz but hopefully every time she makes this dish she'll be reminded of me and I'll be reminded of our last night out to see a 'Man Like Me!' Amazing!

Crucials

One Lemon
Roasted honey salmon flakes (fresh) or you can use a seasoned cooked salmon fillet flaked
One small tub of creme fraiche
Chilli flakes
Fusilli pasta (or ideally fresh tagliatelle)
Knob of butter
Fresh peas (or frozen)
Parmesan

Creamy and flaky

  • Fry the butter in a small frying pan and add the salmon flakes, break up so they are in small pieces and not too chunky
  • At the same time boil the water for the pasta
  • Squeeze in half a lemon (for two people and one lemon for four)
  • Stir the salmon and lemon until it starts to golden (not too much)
  • Add the tub of creme fraiche and mix together
  • Season with salt and pepper
  • Add a few chilli flakes
  • Turn it off and wait for the water to boil
  • Add the pasta and peas and boil until ready
  • Once it's done, drain and stir in the creamy salmon (you may need to heat before you mix it in)
  • Serve and sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan



Soooo delicious so easy, and great for a quick meal that everyone will love, just yummy! x

And I'm sure Anna even secretly liked it when I made it this summer, and she's not one for fishy dishes!
