Salmon Recipe = Highland Pasta with Smoked Salmon - serves 2

Ingredients:
4 oz (110g) pasta
8 oz (225g) smoked salmon
1 oz (25g) butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed with 1 teaspoon salt
4 oz (110g) mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 level teaspoon mild curry powder
1 level tablespoon plain flour
5 fl oz (150ml) white wine
2 tablespoons crème fraîche

Method:
Melt the butter in a solid-based frying pan, and then add the onion and sauté over a low heat until soft. Add the crushed garlic and mushrooms and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes. Next mix the curry powder and flour together and stir these into the butter. Then add the wine gradually, stirring briskly after each addition and, when all the wine is added, cook for a further 3 minutes before finally adding the crème fraîche. The sauce is now ready, lay a piece of cling film over the surface if you're not using it immediately as this will stop a skin from forming.

When you're ready to cook the pasta place a large saucepan with plenty of lightly salted water on to boil and cook the pasta for 10 minutes or until it is cooked.

Tear little pieces of your smoked salmon into strips, then reheat the sauce and add the salmon at the last minute before serving.

Now drain the pasta, return it to the pan, then quickly stir in the sauce and smoked salmon and serve at once with a side salad or crusty bread.

Method:
Preheat the oven to 200°C.
Cut a piece of foil about 1 ½ times the length of the salmon, and grease with butter.
Lay the salmon on the centre of the foil and transfer to an oven tray. Bring the edges of the foil up around the fish, scrunching up the two ends tightly, making an envelope.
Stir the remaining ingredients into the melted butter and pour over the salmon. Season generously. Bring the sides of the foil up over the fish and fold the edges together to make an airtight parcel. Cook for 20 minutes.
