I felt like pasta for lunch. Something quick and yummy so I came up with this dish. I used canned smoked salmon, frozen shrimps and veggies.
Ingredients:
1 can of smoked salmon (110g), keep its oil and brine as it's really flavorful
8 medium sized cooked frozen shrimps
1 cup pasta (i used fusili)
a small handful of brocolli florettes
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon oregano
chili flakes, eyeball it
salt and pepper to taste
a bit of lemon juice to taste
Method:
1. Cook pasta in boiling salted water (1 teaspoon of salt for every cup of water used)
2. In the mean time, prepare other pasta ingredients. In a bowl, combine add smoked salmon, garlic, chiliflakes, oregano, lemon juice, salt and pepper together and let it sit on the counter while waiting for the pasta to cook.
3. A minute before the pasta is done, add in your frozen cooked shrimps and brocolli in.
4. Drain after a minute and add the other ingredients in. Toss to mix. The heat from the pasta will sweat and cook the mince garlic so you will have a very nice garlicky aroma and taste.
5. Serve and sprinkle some dried parsley for garnish if you'd like..:)

Hi Kris,
Let me know how it turned out for you :) I love mine with lots of chiliflakes. Must be the Malaysian in me :P
I never knew you could make a pasta dish like that. Adventurous, eh? :-)
Oh you can make anything with pasta and it's not just with tomato sauce..it's one of the more versatile ingredients around :)
That's very creative!
