This is an ultra-cheap, easy, yet surprisingly tasty recipe. We seem to have this at least once each week.
Ingredients
For four people you’ll need:
- Penne pasta (one very large handful per person -try pouring the pasta into your hand until it overflows … oh go on, add one more handful just for luck)
- 2-3 leeks, chopped into about 1cm thick slices.
- 200g salmon, thinly sliced tiny pieces (this can be ultra cheap, e.g. salmon trimmings
- half-fat creme fraiche/sour cream
- Lemon juice
- Pepper
Method
- Boil your pasta. About 3-4 minutes before it is completed, drop your leeks into the pot as well. Everything should be ready at the same time if you get this right.
- Drain your pasta/leek mix.
- Drop your salmon and creme fraiche into the pasta pot.
- Add plenty of lemon juice and pepper. Mix it all up.
Total time from start to finish: about 2 minutes more than the time it takes to cook the pasta as you can do most of the preparation while the pasta is cooking.
