Pasta II: Salmon and Asparagus Cream Pasta

This recipe has easily become a favorite amongst friends who got to taste my version of the Salmon and Asparagus Cream Pasta. What my friends didn’t know is, this dish is actually simple to make, but may take a little while to prepare because of the chopping.

Until recently, I didn’t really like eating asparagus (just like how I didn’t like eating lettuce, brocolli, and cauliflower), but now loves them big deal. Anyway, BQ and I ate at one of the italian restos in PowerPlant Rockwell around 2 to 3 years ago and he ordered Salmon and Asparagus Cream Pasta. I was a bit hesitant to taste it but he was pushy and I didn’t like what I was eating (how can they mess up with lasagna?!) back then so I tried and wow!

After a few days, I started experimenting on the sauce and yay, I think I was quite successful so I am finally sharing this dish especially for Teth who requested for it to be posted =)

Ingredients

2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 pack Knorr Cream of Asparagus
Nestle cream
Several stalks of asparagus, chopped
Salmon, cut into small strips

1 Liter water
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 pc. onion, chopped
4 cloves of garlic, crushed and chopped
2 thin slices of cheddar cheese
Salted butter

Here’s how

Heat pan and then add olive oil first before adding the butter.
Saute garlic, onion, salmon, and asparagus.
Add the lemon.
Tip: I always use lemon to dishes with cream, because it somehow removes the umay taste.
Add water and cream of asparagus powder; mix thoroughly.
Add the rest of the ingredients – pepper, cream, cheddar cheese, parmesan cheese.
Bring to boil.
