I made this last night, impromptu with existing ingredients in my fridge.
I do apologise for the lack of photo ( clearly, eating was on my mind at the time and blogging wasn't.. )
Makes 2.
Ingredients
( note: amount is approximate... basically, enough for two people )
150g angelhair pasta
75g smoked salmon
1 large [yellow] heirloom tomato
1 (skinny) branch of broccoli
2 cloves garlic
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
salt & pepper
olive oil
Preparation
1. Boil half pot of water in a medium-sized saucepan. Once boiling, add a couple pinches of salt and a drizzle of olive oil. Add pasta, stirring until pasta is completely immersed in water and water reboils. Turn heat to medium and let boil until pasta is al dente. Drain water. Return to pot and coat with olive oil. Set aside.
2. Multi-tasking step (1), prepare ingredients:
a) dice tomato;
b) remove head of broccoli from stem and break up as usual; [for those of you who don't normally use broccoli stems, here is your chance] peel bark off stem (roughly cut stem into medium-sized stubs; set stub vertically and slice off ~2mm around the stub; or use a peeler) and dice;
c) crush garlic;
d) break up salmon into bite-size pieces.
3. Heat pan on high. Sauté garlic and broccoli in olive oil. Once broccoli begins to brown (burn), add a dash (~1/3 cup) water. Once water has evaporated, remove broccoli from pan and set aside.
4. Using the same pan, set on medium heat. Lightly fry the salmon in a tiny amount of olive oil.
5. Once salmon is slightly golden, stir in the tomato. Then add back the broccoli. Salt & pepper to taste (beware: smoked salmon tend to be salty already).
6. Turn off heat. Toss in pasta and grated cheese. Serve immediately.
Enjoy.
