I saw this recipe on The Big Breakfast (Channel 4), about 26 years ago; and have been making variations of it ever since.
It's the simplest recipe I know - I dare you to get this one wrong!
There is an even simpler version here
This is especially nice if made with homemade pasta
Ingredients
Printable 🖨 shopping 🛒 list & 👩🍳 method for this recipe
- 1 portion of fresh tagliatelle (about 250g) or 100g of dried taglitelle
- 1 tin lobster bisque soup
- 2 raw salmon steaks, about 175g (6 oz) each
- 100 g (3.5 oz) fresh peeled prawns
- 3 tablespoons dry sherry
- 125 ml single or double cream
- Big handful of parsley, chopped - keep some whole for the garnish
- Chopped chives (optional)
- Squeeze of lemon juice
- Freshly grated black pepper
- Pinch of salt
- Splash of olive oil
- 2 cloves of garlic, peeled and crushed
Method
- Remove the skin from the salmon and remove any pin-bones - tweezers are good for this
- Cut the salmon into 1" x 1" chunks
- Add a splash of olive oil and the black pepper to a large pan and sizzle the garlic for a few minutes. Add the salmon pieces and stir to coat with the garlic oil
- Pour the soup over the garlic and salmon, almost bring the soup to the boil and then immediately reduce to a simmer
- Place the salmon chunks in the soup and simmer for 4 minutes
- Cook the pasta as directed, drain and cover
- Add the prawns, cream, sherry, chopped parsley, salt and stir for a minute or so
- Pour the pasta into the soup, mix well, serve with parsley garnish
Serving suggestions
Serve hot, maybe with a salad if you need to stretch it to four people. There is enough here for two gluttons though!
Variations
This works well with a few crushed bird's' eye chillies crushed and added with the garlic. Mind you, if you love your chili you probably don't need to be told this!
