Method

  1. Heat oil in a non-stick pan and cook the salmon, skin-side down, for 5 mins. Turn over and continue to cook for 4 mins more until the salmon is cooked through. Remove from pan, leave to cool, then flake the fish into large chunks, discarding skin.
  2. Cook tagliatelle according to pack instructions. Scoop out half a cup of cooking water, then drain and return to the pan. Toss in the salmon and remaining ingredients, loosening with cooking water, if the mixture is too thick. Serve immediately.

Taste team comment

'All the flavours were very fresh and clean. I could taste each individual ingredient. It was well balanced and flavours complemented each other with no certain one overpowering the dish.'

    This was nice, and easy to do, a great way to eat your favourite pasta and the goodness of the fish.

    This was a very easy but effective receipe. I used chopped baby spinach instead of rocket but still made a really nice easy tasty dish.

    Made a variation of the recipe using smoked salmon and a squeeze of lemon juice and had it as a salad. It was delicious, even if it came about because I read the recipe incorrectly before I dashed off to the shops, otherwise I would have bought normal salmon and a lemon. The best thing of all is that there is some left over for lunch tomorrow.

    Really quick and easy, quite nice too. A perfect midweek meal. I added some chilli flakes as I like a bit of spice. Will make again.
