Smoked Salmon And Prosciutto Pasta Sauce
- 6 thin slices prosciutto
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, good quality for this recipe
- 1 red onion, chopped as thin as you can
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 cup peas (frozen or fresh)
- 1/2 cup cream (I have been known to use more, up to 3/4 cup)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest, grated
- 250 g salmon, roughly chopped (not too small)
- 1/4 cup small mint leaf, chopped
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
- fresh ground pepper, to serve
- Place the Prosciutto on an baking tray and grill both sides for 3 minutes, until crispy. Break into shards using your hands - set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil, fry the onion until wilted. Add the garlic and fry until fragrant (about 30-60 seconds).
- Add the peas cream and lemon (juice and rind). Stir until it JUST comes to the boil and remove from the heat.
- Add in the salmon, mint and parmesan cheese.
- Top with the prosciutto.
- Toss through your pasta and serve.
- I grind fresh pepper as I am tossing the pasta through.
