  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to make pasta with salmon in cream sauce? Prepare the products. Well, if you take fresh fish, if it is frozen, then pre-defrost it. A ready-made fillet will do, and a whole fish or part of it, you just need to cut it into fillets yourself. It's better to take a hard cheese, I have "Parmesan". Cream 20%. Choose pasta from hard varieties, of good quality.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Heat the frying pan over medium heat, pour vegetable oil on it and lightly fry the peeled garlic clove on it. Garlic itself will not participate in the dish, it is only necessary that it gives its flavor to the oil. Remove the fried garlic from the pan.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Rinse the salmon fillet under running water, dry with a paper towel and cut into squares. Put the chopped fish in the fragrant oil and fry over medium heat, stirring from all sides, for about 5 minutes.

    Add salt, pepper, and dry spices to the fried pieces of fish. I add Provencal herbs, you can put something of your favorite. Stir so that the fish is evenly covered with spices.

    Step 5.

    Pour in the fatty cream to the fish (they should cover the pieces of fish by half), stir and simmer for 7-10 minutes. In this step, if desired, you can add grated hard cheese directly to the sauce, mix it and serve immediately. Or you can sprinkle cheese on a ready-made dish with pasta.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Pour the selected pasta into boiling salted water and cook until cooked according to the instructions on the package. I advise you to cook pasta and fry fish at the same time so that they are ready at the same time. I chose bows for this recipe, they cook for about ten minutes. Put the finished pasta in a colander to drain the excess liquid.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    Serve pasta with salmon hot. Put the cooked hot pasta on each plate, put pieces of salmon on top and pour the fragrant sauce over everything. Sprinkle the hot dish with grated cheese on top. A glass of white wine is perfect for such a dish. Enjoy your meal!

How to properly cut a whole fish into fillets? Remove the tail, head and fins. Cut the carcass along the spine to the spine. Turn it on its side. With a sharp knife, cut the meat from the backbone bone. Turn the carcass over and cut the fillet from the other side. Clean the inside by removing the black film, as it is bitter and will spoil the taste. Rinse and be sure to dry well.

Note that the quality and taste of the finished dish largely depends on the proper defrosting of the ingredients. How to avoid mistakes and choose the best way, read the article about defrosting.
