A quick, wholesome pasta dish made with ASC labelled salmon, fresh herbs, and a light crème fraîche sauce. Ready in 20 minutes – simple, tasty, and full of goodness for the whole family. 

  1. Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and cook the pasta according to the packet instructions.  
  2. Meanwhile, season the salmon fillets with pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Pan-fry for 3–4 minutes on each side, or roast in the oven at 200°C for 10–12 minutes, until just cooked through. Set aside to rest, then flake into large chunks
  3. Melt the butter in a pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, cooking gently until softened. Stir in the peas and crumble in the stock cube with a splash of water. Simmer for 3 minutes.  
  4. Add the crème fraîche, season with salt and black pepper, and warm through gently without boiling. Stir in the spinach until just wilted.  
  5. Drain the pasta and toss it through the sauce. Divide between plates, top with the flaked salmon, and finish with fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon, if you like.

Kingfish:

  1. Prepare your ASC responsibly sourced kingfish fillet into appropriately sized portions, then press and roll the fillet into the mixture of black and white sesame seeds – store in the fridge. 
  2. Bring a non-stick pan to a medium high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. 
  3. Sear the kingfish on each side for approx. 30 seconds – we only want to sear the outside of the flesh. 
  4. Once seared, take your fillet off the heat and reserve in the fridge until it’s time to plate. 

Soba noodle salad:

  1. Cook the soba noodles as per the instructions, then immediately rinse in icy cold water. Drizzle with olive oil to prevent them sticking together, then reserve in the fridge. 
  2. In a bowl, combine the rest of the ingredients and adjust seasoning with salt, lime juice or chilli. 
  3. Once ready to plate, toss the noodles through the sauce. 

Yuzu mayo:

  1. Simply mix the yuzu and kewpie mayonnaise together. 

 To plate:

  1. Cut your cold kingfish into thin slices. 
  2. Place a generous handful of the noodle salad onto the plate and then a spoonful or two of the yuzu mayo to the side. 
  3. Arrange your kingfish over the mayo. 
  4. Garnish with fresh herbs and freshly cut green chilli.

For the marinade, peel the ginger with a spoon and chop with a knife. Mix with all the other ingredients of the marinade in a mixing cup with a blender. 

Cook the rice noodles in hot water according to package directions and then rinse with cold water. 

Cut the ends off the sugar snap peas and cut them in half. Peel the carrot and cut into strips. Remove the ends from the baby broccoli and the lettuce hearts. Cut the lettuce hearts into coarse strips. 

Season the tilapia loins with a little salt and fry in a pan with sesame oil for about 2-3 minutes on both sides until golden brown. 

After removing the tilapia fillets, sauté the vegetables in the same pan over medium heat. Start with the baby broccoli, then add the carrot strips, snap peas and bean sprouts. Finally, when the vegetables are somewhat cooked but still crunchy after about 4 minutes, add the sliced lettuce hearts. 

In a bowl, mix the rice noodles with the vegetables and marinade and garnish with fresh coriander leaves. Serve with the fried tilapia fillets.

For the sauce

Cook the finely chopped onion in a pan until golden, then add the cherry tomatoes cut into small pieces. Add a pinch of salt and cook for about 2 minutes. Heat a non-stick pan, then add a drizzle of oil and roast the shelled shrimp, cut into small pieces, for 30 seconds. Cook in small batches. Add the shrimp to the tomato sauce. Pour the white wine into the shrimp pan, let the alcohol evaporate and then add it to the tomato sauce.

 

Spaghetti

Boil the spaghetti in plenty of salted water until al dente, then drain, saving the liquid. Put the spaghetti back in the pan with the sauce, adding a couple of ladles of cooking water. Mix together and cook for a few minutes, adding finely chopped fresh mint, grated lemon zest and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

 

To serve

Twist spaghetti into a pasta bowl and serve with warm crusty bread.
