- 3 cloves garlic crushed
- 3 tbs capers
- 300 ml thickened cream
- ½ cup parmesan cheese
- Small handful parsley finely chopped
- 300 g hot smoked salmon skin removed and broken up into large flakes
Instructions
- In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the pasta according to the packed instructions.
- Meanwhile for the sauce, heat butter in a large skillet or frying pan. Once the butter starts to foam add garlic and capers. Cook for 2 minutes stirring frequently so that the garlic does not burn.
- Add cream, bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Add parsley and parmesan and cook for 10 minutes on a gentle simmer. Remove hot smoked salmon from packaging and discard the skin. Break up into large flakes and stir through the sauce. Season well.
- Once the pasta is cooked drain, reserving a cup of the starchy water and return the pasta to the pot. Pour over the sauce along with a good splash of the reserved cooking water and toss it all through. Ensure the pasta is evenly coated in the beautiful sauce. Serve with an extra sprinkle of parmesan cheese.
