Creamy Pasta with Smoked Salmon

01Method

1. 1

   Cook the pasta in salted boiling water following package instructions until al dente, then drain and reserve about 250 ml of the cooking water.

2. 2

   Heat the oil in a large pan and sauté the onion for about 6 minutes until softened but not coloured. Stir in the garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. Pour in the wine and let it reduce by half, then add the cream. Season with salt and pepper and simmer gently.

3. 3

   Add the salmon pieces to the sauce and fold in the cooked pasta. Include the lemon zest and juice, stirring gently to avoid breaking up the fish too much. Thin the sauce with a little of the reserved pasta water if needed.

4. 4

   Adjust seasoning to taste and garnish with fresh dill leaves before serving.
