Author: Kimi
Serves: 2 to 3 portions
Ingredients
- 200g pasta (dry weight - I used Morrisons gluten free brown rice pasta)
- 220g / 2 salmon steaks
- 120g asparagus
- 4 large closed cup mushrooms
- 95g plain cream cheese
- 30g / 2 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 120ml / ½ cup milk
- 20g fresh parmesan
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 1 big handful of fresh parsley
- ½ tsp dried dill
- Dash of nutmeg
- Salt
- Black pepper
Notes
Cooking temperature (for the salmon): 220C (428F)
Directions
- Pre-heat the oven to 220C (428F) and bake the salmon steaks until fully cooked (about 20 minutes).
- Meanwhile cook the pasta and start preparing the sauce.
- Cut the asparagus into 1 inch slices (making sure to discard the tough ends) and finely chop the mushrooms and garlic.
- Boil the asparagus for 5 minutes in lightly salted water, drain and set aside.
- In a non stick sautée pan, heat up the butter on medium/low heat and pan fry the garlic and mushrooms for a few minutes. Then add the cream cheese, milk, parmesan, parsley, mustard, dill, nutmeg, salt and black pepper.
- Then stir in the cooked asparagus and salmon.
- Serve with extra parmesan cheese on top.
Enjoy!
