Korea and salmon - "What's that combo?". Salmon, I only really got to know the fish during my semester abroad in Seoul. The nation is grossly friendly and fish-savvy. Accordingly, several local dishes are based on various seafood, as well as salmon. After snacking on a "Salmonbowl" twice a week, I took home various dishes. I have also remained faithful to salmon and love it in any form. My favorite is in combination with pasta, what a glorious idea from the Italians. Combined with a slightly spicy dill sauce and dark tagliatelle. Phew, I'm getting hungry just writing this.
Alright, let's get to preparing it! "Salmon pasta" with dill from food for flexitarians, here we go!
Ingredients
1 onion
1 carrot
2 garlic cloves
1 chilli
200-250g salmon fillet
150ml cream
200g pasta
Lemon juice and zest of one lemon
handful of dill
Instructions
Let's start classically with oil in the pan and heat it on medium heat. Great, well done!
Now add the onions and sauté for a few minutes. Then immediately add the carrot and crushed garlic. Just crush the garlic so you can remove it easier later. The taste remains!
Let everything simmer together until the onions give off a slightly sweet scent. At the same time, boil the pasta water with a good amount of salt and add the pasta. We cook the pasta almost "al dente" (we take it out three minutes before and add it to the pan later).
In the next step we add the cream, the dill and the zest of two lemons. After three minutes, we add the salmon to the pan and fry it briefly in the sauce on both sides. The salmon should remain glazed on the inside.
After a short searing we take the salmon out of the pan and put it on the side.
Now add the noodles with some chili to the pan (you can also add some pasta water to the pan -> for a more rounded taste). Let everything continue to simmer on a light heat.
Finally, don't forget to season and start serving. Be careful to keep the garlic in the pan and the salmon on the prepared plate. Squeeze some lemon juice on top and "Vamos", on the table with it! "Salmon pasta" with dill from food for flexitarians are served!
Resumé
Salmon pops! Combined with pasta and it rattles the palate. As a haphazard student you get it done. It always tastes better when you share food. So grab your buddy and whip up some "Salmon Pasta" with dill.
