Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.
- While pasta cooks, pour enough water into a frying pan to cover salmon; add dill. Strain in lemon juice. Mix and season with salt and pepper. Add salmon to the pan and poach over medium-high heat, flipping as necessary, until it flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes. Remove the skin when you flip it the first time.
- At the same time, heat olive oil in a pan over medium to medium-high heat. Saute green beans and shallots until the shallots start to brown and the green beans soften, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Once the salmon is poached, use tongs to set it aside in a shallow bowl, but don't throw the poaching mixture away. Take about 1/4 cup of the poaching mixture and add it to a saucepan. Add sour cream and chopped dill and mix over medium heat until combined. Remove from heat and mix into pasta.
- Place pasta on serving plates, along with some chunks of the salmon, plus some of the sauteed mixture. Try to get an even mix if possible. Sprinkle with garden cress. Serve immediately!

Steps:
- You can either steam or roast the salmon, depending if you want to turn the oven on or not. To roast, heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6, place on a baking tray, drizzle with oil and roast for 12 mins until opaque and the flesh starts to flake when pressed. To steam, place the fillets skin-side down in a steamer, and steam over a pan of simmering water for 8-10 mins until cooked.
- While the salmon is cooking, boil the pasta for 10 mins until al dente, then drain, reserving 100ml of the pasta water.
- Heat the oil on a medium heat in a wide frying pan and fry the shallot for 6 mins until softened, but not turning golden. Add the garlic and fry for a minute more until fragrant. Add the wine, bubble for a few minutes until reduced by half, then add the cream and season well. Bring to a very gentle simmer.
- Flake the cooked salmon into big chunky pieces, leaving the skin behind. Add to the sauce with the cooked pasta. Add the lemon zest, a squeeze of the juice and most of the dill. Add a splash of the pasta water to the sauce to coat the pasta if you need to. Toss gently to keep the salmon in big pieces. Check the seasoning, if using double cream you may need a squeeze more lemon juice. Grind over some black pepper and scatter over the remaining dill. Serve with a green salad.

Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk. You can also add a tablespoon of butter to the sauce for extra richness.
- If you don't have white wine on hand, you can use chicken broth or vegetable broth instead. Just be sure to adjust the seasoning accordingly.
- To make the sauce extra creamy, blend it until smooth with an immersion blender or in a regular blender.
- If you're using frozen salmon, be sure to thaw it completely before cooking. You can thaw it overnight in the refrigerator or by running it under cold water for a few minutes.
- Don't overcook the salmon. It should be cooked through but still flaky. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
- Serve the creamy salmon over pasta, rice, or vegetables. You can also top it with a sprinkle of fresh herbs, such as dill or chives.
Conclusion:
This creamy salmon pasta is a quick and easy weeknight meal that's sure to please the whole family. The salmon is cooked in a creamy sauce that's made with white wine, cream, and Parmesan cheese. It's then served over pasta, rice, or vegetables. This dish is also a great way to get your kids to eat salmon. The creamy sauce helps to mask the fishy taste of the salmon, and the pasta or rice makes it more appealing to kids.
