Smoked Salmon Chili Pasta

Friday is a good night - end of the week and time to relax. Most people choose to have a take-away. Indeed, I would speculate that thousands of mediocre pizzas, just warm Chinese noodles and nothing special curries are eaten. Yes, I know not all take-away is bad but nothing beats home cooked - especially if it is quicker and cheaper.

So I invented Salmon-Chilli Pasta - based on carbonara. Firstly, take sufficient pasta for the number of people. I made this for one but I was hungry so this could do for two with a salad.

Mix 1 egg, 2 tablespoonfuls of crème fresh, two slices of smoked salmon chopped, chilli powder to taste, a little grated Parmesan and a little pepper. When the pasta is cooked, drain and add the egg mixture as well as the pasta to the warm pot. Put the pot over the flame and mix until the pasta is neatly coated.

Yum - you still get a hint of the salmon as well as a hint of heat.

Perfect Friday night dinner
