Salmon Farfalle Carbonara
*** SUPER LATE POST *** ✌️✌️✌️
07.Dec.13
Last week, I went to the grocery store to buy a few things we needed at home. On top of that is our daily food meals (includes fish, vegetables, condiments, rice, etc.).
While browsing around, it came to my mind to venture something new dish. Though not really ‘new’ for us and everyone, but for me, it’ll be something different and new in the kitchen. I tried cooking pastas in different versions and sauces but not yet with this..
So… I made up my mind to cook 'Salmon Farfalle Carbonara’. :)
This will be the very 1st time in my entire life in cooking to share a piece of my own venture with you (please bear with me.. Hehe).
So this is how it goes -
Ingredients:
250g pack of Farfalle
120g salmon (sliced into chunks)
1-2 small packets of Carbonara sauce
1 small can of Carbonara mushroom sauce (optional)
1 fresh egg (beaten)
1/2 onion (sliced)
3 leaves of mint (finely sliced)
1/4 cup of green peas (fresh / frozen)
Salt and pepper
Method:
* Bring a large pot of salted water to boil and cook farfalle according to packing instructions.
* Meanwhile, bring a pan to heat and sizzle onions for a minute and add in the salmon until cooked.
* Lightly heat up the sauce in a shallow pan for 3-5 minutes. Do this with constant stirring or you don’t want the sauce to burn.
* In a small bowl, beat egg and add in salt and pepper, leave it aside.
* When the farfalle is nearly cooked, add the peas for another 1-2 minutes.
* When cooked, drain and reserve a small amount of the farfalle water (pasta broth).
* Place the farfalle to a large plate or shallow bowl, add and toss the egg mixture while it is hot. The heat of the pasta will allow the egg to cook.
* Next, add and toss the cooked salmon, sliced mint and sauce together until well combined. You can add few spoonful of the farfalle water if necessary.
* Serve immediately.
That’s how easy it is! ^^
And guess what, my husband loved it! Yay! I’m so happy and proud! It’s never dull and difficult to give it a try!
Venture, experiment, create and enjoy! :)
Here’s an advice: Put your whole heart and love to it and it’ll surely comes out delicious!
I hope you’ll get a try at your home too and let me know what you think.
Enjoy and bon appetit! ;)
