Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In 9-inch frying pan, melt the butter and saute the onions over low heat until tender but not brown. Stir in cream, increase heat to medium-high and simmer 5 minutes to reduce cream.

  2. Step 2

    Stir in Cognac or wine, grated cheese and sun-dried tomatoes. Mix in salmon, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Simmer for 2 minutes more and set aside.

  3. Step 3

    Cook pasta in plenty of boiling salted water with 1 teaspoon of salad oil, according to package directions; if fresh pasta is used, cook for 3 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Drain pasta and toss with salmon sauce in a bowl. Sprinkle chopped fresh dill on each serving, if desired.

I already prepared this dish several times and it was always appreciated by my guests. Last time I substituted the salmon for leek to make the dish vegetarian and it maintained the high quality level.

Garlic instead of onion, lemon zest too, poached salmon whole and cut up at end. Basil instead of dill and no cheese in sauce, just added at end. Lots of pepper. Angel hair.

Followed to a T with fresh tomatoes and basil (instead of dill), was fabulous, easy, and a great leftover..

Mike Sasges

We added some lightly fried asparagus, and that worked well.
