Equipment

  • Pan
  • Pot

Ingredients
  

  • 1 packet Alce Nero Organic Tricolore Spaghetti
  • 2 tbsp Alce Nero Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes
  • ½ zucchini
  • 1-2 salmon steak (with skin on)
  • 2 cups cooking cream
  • 1 cup pasta water
  • 1 handful sliced garlic
  • Parmesan cheese for garnish grated
  • Himalayan salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Boil some water in a pot with some Alce Nero Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil and a couple tablespoons of Himalayan salt.
  • Add in the Alce Nero Organic Tricolore Spaghetti according to your desired serving size as indicated on the package. Set a timer for your pasta (8 minutes).
  • While the pasta is cooking, prepare your other ingredients. Slice the garlic, cut the zucchini into strips and cut the cherry tomatoes into halves.
  • Generously season the salmon with Himalayan salt and black pepper, making sure to cover all sides. Leave for several minutes to marinate.
  • If your pasta is done cooking, remove from the heat, strain and set aside. Remember to save some of the pasta water (a cup will do).
  • Heat some Alce Nero Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a pan and fry the salmon skin-side down first. Flip the salmon after a while and let it cook thoroughly.
  • Once cooked, mince the salmon and set aside.
  • In the same pan, sauté the garlic before adding in the zucchini with some salt to taste.
  • Pour in the cooking cream once the zucchini looks cooked. Stir well and add the Parmesan cheese and black pepper.
  • Add the salmon, stir to combine, and taste for seasoning. Add more salt if needed.
  • Add cherry tomatoes and the cooked spaghetti with some pasta water for extra gravy.
  • Stir once more to combine and serve!

Notes

  • Add in Alce Nero Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Himalayan salt or any salt in the boiling water before adding in the pasta to flavour the pasta.
  • Marinate the salmon slice by rubbing Himalayan salt or any salt and black pepper thoroughly on all sides of the salmon to make it more delicious.
  • Add in heaps of garlic in pasta, as there is no such thing as 'too much garlic' in pastas.
  • Make sure to follow the boiling duration written on the pastas’ packaging to get an 'al dente' pasta.
