Ingredients

  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1 Advocado (ripe)
  • 200g Taramosalata
  • 100g smoked salmon (trimmings are fine if you are on a budget)
  • 300g fresh tagliatelle
  • Cracked black pepper
  • 2 lemon wedges (use your other piece of lemon)
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Instructions

  • Scoop out the advocado flesh and add to food processor.
  • Add Taramosalata and lemon juice to food processor.
  • Whizz together to make a creamy sauce. Add 4 or 5 twists of the pepper mill and whizz again.
  • Cut smoked salmon into strips, reserve 8 strips for decoration.
  • Tip your sauce into a microwave-proof bowl and stir your salmon through it.
  • Place it in the microwave (800w) and set the microwave for 2 minutes but do not start.
  • Cook the pasta according to instructions. When it is cooked press start on the microwave. After 2 mins stir and see if it is hot - it may need another minute.
  • Drain the pasta and drizzle a little EV olive oil to help separate the pasta.
  • Toss the pasta in half the sauce. Plate it and add remaining sauce on top.
  • Garnish with reserved smoked salmon and a little cracked black pepper. Add extra lemon to taste.
