I wanted to
do some pasta and found I had both smoked salmon and some bacon in the fridge. I wasn't sure they would go together but
after a little googling I decided it was worth a try. And the flavours worked really well together.
Ingredients:
Small
packet of smoked salmon
Packet of
streaky bacon
Garlic oil
Store
bought Alfredo sauce
Turmeric
Nutmeg – a few
grates – not too much
Pepper (and
salt if it needs it when it is cooked – bacon can be pretty salty)
Cherry
tomatoes
Parmesan
cheese
Method:
To avoid
using too many pots and pans, I fried off the bacon in a medium sized pot that
I also used for the sauce. I used garlic
infused olive oil and also added the turmeric during the frying. I had cut the bacon up into bite sized
pieces.
While the
bacon is cooking bring a large pot to the boil containing well salted water. Cook your pasta until al dente (I used
tagliatelle). While it is cooking add
your smoked salmon (cut up) and a few halved cherry tomatoes plus a good amount of
pepper.
Pour in
your store bought Alfredo sauce and let it heat through. Finish your sauce off with a grate or 2 of
nutmeg and lashings of grated parmesan.
My only
slight whinge about this dish is that the pasta slurps everywhere when you are
trying to serve it.
