Ingredients

400 g spaghetti
150 g smoked salmon, cut into strips

How do you make pasta al limone with smoked salmon?

Cook the spaghetti in plenty of salted water according to the package instructions. Reserve a cup of the cooking water before draining.
Heat a splash of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and gently sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Be careful not to let it brown.
Add the heavy cream to the pan and let it simmer gently for 2 to 3 minutes over low heat. Grate the lemon zest over it, then squeeze in the lemon juice. Stir well.
Add the grated Parmesan and stir until you have a smooth sauce. Add a splash of the reserved cooking water if the sauce becomes too thick.
Toss the drained spaghetti through the sauce and mix well so every strand is coated. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Divide the pasta among the deep plates. Place the strips of smoked salmon on top, add extra lemon zest if desired and garnish with fresh chives. Serve immediately.

Cooking mode Prevents your screen from going to sleep

This recipe works so well because the combination of lemon and cream tastes surprisingly bright without becoming heavy. The smoked salmon adds just that little extra depth. Make sure your pasta is truly al dente because it will cook a little more in the sauce. That detail is the difference between just good and really delicious.

A deep plate is not an afterthought with pasta. It keeps your dish warm, prevents the sauce from running off and also looks attractive at the table. Choose earthenware if you want the plate to retain heat longer. Good tableware isn't a luxury, it's just smart choice.
