Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

200g spaghetti
2 courgettes , grated
100g red cherry tomatoes , halved
100g yellow cherry tomatoes , halved
4 salmon fillets or 2 chicken breasts
4 tbsp olive oil
1 garlic clove , finely sliced

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Cook the spaghetti following pack instructions and drain. Cut 4 rectangles of baking parchment off a roll, each twice as long as it is wide. Lay them on a work surface. Toss the spaghetti with the grated courgettes. Divide the spaghetti between the pieces of parchment, then divide the cherry tomatoes between each pile.
  • If using salmon, slice lengthways, but keep the fillet together. Place on top of the veg and press sideways so the slices move apart a little. If using chicken, halve each breast through the middle horizontally to give four pieces, then cut each into strips and tip a pile of chicken strips onto each pile of spaghetti.
  • Heat the oil and fry the garlic for 1 min, then pour a little garlic oil over each pile. Season with black pepper if your children like it. Bring the two longer sides of parchment up to meet in the middle and fold the ends over and over, working down towards the filling, leaving a little room for the steam to expand the parcel. Flatten the seam down and then fold in each end. Use paper clips to hold the folds, if you like. Lift the parcels onto a baking tray and bake for 10-15 mins. The parcels should puff up as they cook.
  • Serve each person a puffed parcel in a shallow bowl and snip it open at the table, staying clear of any steam (and removing any paperclips).

SPAGHETTI WITH SALMON TWO WAYS



Spaghetti With Salmon Two Ways image

To dress pasta? Olive oil, of course. But that was until I tried a generously buttered spaghetti at Arakataka restaurant in Oslo. Only after I unwound the disarmingly simple knot of fresh pasta strands tossed with butter and crowned with fish roe did the sumptuous complexity of flavors start to bloom. This was a dish I knew I would try to replicate at home. The challenge was the roe. The restaurant used lojrom, also called bleak roe, a fairly fine-grained roe that is popular in Scandinavia but hard to find in the United States. Other roes, like golden whitefish, trout and salmon, may be substituted. For a somewhat more substantial preparation, I added some hot-smoked salmon, ripe tomato and a hint of lemon.

Time 20m

Yield Yield 2 to 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Salt
2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Grated zest of 1 lemon
1 medium-large ripe beefsteak tomato, peeled, seeded and diced (about 1 cup)
4 ounces hot-smoked salmon, skinned, diced
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint leaves
8 ounces spaghetti alla chitarra, preferably fresh
Ground black pepper
3 tablespoons salmon or trout roe

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. While water is heating, melt butter in a 3-quart saucepan over low heat. Add lemon zest to butter and cook about 90 seconds, until the lemon is fragrant. Do not allow butter to brown. Remove from heat. Add tomato and salmon to the pan and stir briefly. Fold in mint.
  • When water boils, add pasta and cook until al dente, about 5 minutes. Drain, then place pasta in the pot with the salmon and gently fold ingredients together. Season generously with pepper and, if needed, salt.
  • Divide pasta among 2 or 3 shallow plates. Top each portion with roe and serve.
