Creamy one-pot salmon pasta
Ingredients (2 portions)
- 150 g pasta or spaghetti
- One large tin (~200 g) of salmon (or fish of your choosing)
- 2 handfuls of kale
- 1 tbsp capers
- 2 tbsp olives
- 2 tbsp cream cheese
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- Black pepper
Method
- Boil the kettle. Cover the pasta in a saucepan with a few inches of boiling water and cook according to package instructions.
- When the pasta has 2-3 minutes left to cook, add a couple of handfuls of kale to the saucepan, and mix in with the pasta and water to ensure it cooks.
- Place a measuring jug in the sink. When the pasta and kale are cooked, drain with a colander into the sink over the measuring jug, so some of the pasta water is collected.
- Turn the heat on the hob to low. Add the pasta and kale back to the saucepan, along with 2 tbsp cream cheese, 1 tbsp capers with some brine, 2 tbsp olives, 1 (drained) tin of fish, and 1 tsp dijon mustard, and return to the heat.
- Stir to combine all ingredients, and add some of the pasta water as needed to help the cream cheese distribute evenly.
- Serve topped with black pepper.
