My favourite pasta is definitely Pappardelle – I can’t really say why…Spaghetti comes a close second. I do think that this Dairy Free Smoked Salmon and Pernod Pappardelle is the perfect combination for a delicious and quick dinner – you can use any pasta you like for this sauce, you can even replace the Smoked Salmon with a broken up slalom fillet if that’s what you have available.
If you don’t have Pernod (you need to ask yourself about this – its a wonderful aniseed aperitif!) then substitute with a nice white sherry or a strong white white (not something light and fruity). The combination of the dairy free cream, smoked salmon and Pernod comes together perfectly in our Dairy Free Smoked Salmon and Pernod Pappardelle. I use Oatley cream and Oatley Crème Fraiche, and Violife Parmesan to keep everything dairy free, you can, of course, use the Cow versions should you wish.
The other thing I love about this recipe is the speed – it’s quick, delicious and is great for a special dinner.
Dairy Free Smoked Salmon and Pernod Pasta
Ingredients
- 200 grms Smoked Salmon
- 1/2 White Onion - finely chopped
- 2 Cloves Garlic - Sliced (you can mince if you like)
- 2 Tbsp Vegan Violife Parmesan Grated
- 250 Mls Cream - Dairy Free Oatly is my preference
- 2 Tbsp Crème Fraiche - Oatly
- 1/8 Cup Fish or Vegetable Stock
- 3 Tbsp Pernod Or 1/4 cup white wine
- 480 Grms Pappardelle Or whatever pasta you prefer. You can make this gluten free easily by using gluten free pasta
Instructions
- Fry the onion and garlic in a little oil until the onion is translucent, pop a large pot on the stove on a medium heat for the pasta. Pop in your pasta and time for between 9-10 minutes.
- Add the Oatly Cream, Oatly Crème Fraiche, Pernod, Parmesan and fish stock to the frying pan and whisk briefly to combine. Allow to simmer on a low heat while the pasta cooks. Just before the pasta is finished, stir in your chopped smoked salmon and leave to bubble away for a few minutes.
- Check your pasta then drain it thoroughly, and pop back in the pot. Mix with the pasta sauce and serve.
- If you like, you could garnish with dill, or fennel leaves.
