PINK SALMON PASTA
This is a delicious dish that has evolved over the years since I have been making it. I use angel hair pasta and the finished product I am aiming for is a 'dry' pasta dish. That is, the pasta should be coated and flavoured by the sauce, but not swimming in it. It is a very economical dish that produces a luxurious tasting result!

Steps:
- Fry chopped onion, carrot, celery and garlic in ev olive oil until soft but not coloured. Add white wine and allow to completely cook away. Add tomatoes and simmer for at least an hour. Season with herbs of your choice and salt and pepper. Boil angel hair pasta in salted boiling water until done to your liking. Drain pasta.
- Now I combine the sauce, pasta and pink salmon in the following manner. I use this method because I want to produce a pasta that is only 'coated' in sauce, not 'swimming' in it. I place a saucepan over low heat and add alternate quantities of pasta and the tomato sauce and toss together until well combined. I only add enough sauce to the pasta to colour and lightly coat the pasta. When I am happy with the balance, I add the flaked salmon, tossing it through the pasta until it is all combined.
- Serve topped with parmesan or romano cheese and torn fresh basil leaves, and hot chilli (pepper) flakes if you like. Delicious!
- Enjoy.

Tips:
- Choose fresh or frozen pink salmon: If using frozen, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or under cold water for 30 minutes.
- Cook the salmon properly: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it carefully to avoid overcooking. The best way to cook salmon is to bake it in the oven, pan-sear it, or grill it. Salmon is done cooking when it flakes easily with a fork.
- Use high-quality pasta: The type of pasta you use can make a big difference in the final dish. Choose a high-quality pasta made with durum wheat semolina for the best results.
- Don't overcook the pasta: Pasta should be cooked al dente, which means it should be tender but still have a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant.
- Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what brings the dish together, so make sure it's flavorful and delicious. You can use a variety of sauces, such as a creamy sauce, a tomato sauce, or a pesto sauce.
- Add vegetables: Vegetables add flavor, color, and nutrients to the dish. You can add any type of vegetables you like, such as broccoli, zucchini, mushrooms, or spinach.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs add a pop of color and flavor to the dish. You can use any type of fresh herbs you like, such as basil, parsley, or cilantro.
