-
Cut the salmon into bite-sized
pieces, arrange them on a microwave proof plate and cover
with greaseproof paper. Microwave on HIGH for 2-2½minutes,
rearranging halfway through cooking. Leave to stand for 5
minutes.
-
Cook the pasta in a saucepan
of boiling water on the hob, following the packet
instructions.
-
Drain the pasta and toss it
with the tomatoes and salmon. Mix the crème fraîche,
parsley, orange rind and pepper to taste, then toss this
sauce into the salmon and pasta and serve hot.
-
If low-fat crème fraîche is
not available, use ordinary crème fraîche or double cream
instead; or, for a very low fat version use fromage frais.
