Smoked Salmon Lemon Alfredo

I think it’s a bit obvious that I’m a fan of Shirataki noodles, but as so far I always do them Asian style, I wanted to see how well they’d hold up in something a little more ‘Western’.

This was a quick, comforting dinner and definitely one I’ll do again as it was amazing!

ingredients

  • 170 g Shirataki Noodles
  • 60 g Smoked Salmon (cut into strips)
  • 40 g Grated Parmesan
  • 100 ml Creme Fraiche
  • 1 medium Egg
  • 0.5 clove Garlic (minced)
  • 1 tbsp Butter
  • Zest of 0.5 Lemon
  • Fresh lemon & Parsley to serve

instructions

  1. Open your noodles, drain in a sieve and rinse well in cold water.
  2. Tip the rinsed noodles into a saucepan of salted water, bring to the boil for 2-3 minutes, drain and rinse again in cold water. Set to one side in the sieve.
  3. Beat the egg and mix together with the Parmesan.
  4. In the same saucepan you used for the noodles, fry the garlic in the butter.
  5. Add the noodles and cook for 1-2 minutes.
  6. Stir through the creme fraiche and egg mixture until well mixed. Continue to cook on a gentle heat for 3-4 minutes. The egg will thicken the sauce, but be careful not to use too high a heat or the egg will scramble!
  7. Stir the salmon and lemon zest through the pasta before turning into a serving bowl.
  8. Finish with a little lemon juice and some fresh parsley or chives.
