Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 250 g smoked or fresh salmon, chopped
- ½ cup (125 ml) white wine
- 1 cup (250 ml) cream
- 1 tbsp crème fraîche
- 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
- 1 tsp horseradish, freshly grated
- 1 pinch of black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 pinch of salt
- 9 oz (250 g) spaghetti
Method
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan, and gently sauté the onion for about 2 minutes until glassy.
- Put the salmon into the pan and cook for another 3 minutes.
- Add the white wine, but be careful! Too much wine causes a distinctly winey taste.
- Wait for about 1 minute, then add the cream; dissolve the crème fraîche and stir in the horseradish.
- Let the sauce simmer until it thickens and absorbs the characteristic taste of the salmon. Add the dill last and season with a pinch of freshly ground black pepper and salt. Be very careful with the salt when using smoked salmon as it already contains a significant amount of salt.
- Put the spaghetti on two serving plates and add the sauce. Garnish the plate with a slice of lemon and some dill leaves. Serve immediately and offer white wine with the dish.
