This week's Wednesday with Donna Hay recipe was Lemon and Dill Smoked Salmon Pasta, chosen by Chaya. This dish comprised spaghetti, coated with lemon juice and olive oil, and mixed in with smoked salmon, green onion, capers and dill (I skipped the mint).
The first night that I ate this, I was rather overwhelmed by the strong flavour of the smoked salmon; I enjoyed it much better the second day, when I zapped it in the microwave to heat it up, thereby cooking the salmon and toning down the flavour.
I am not a huge fan of smoked salmon, so this is not likely to be a regular a my place; however, if you love the flavour of smoked salmon, this may be a perfect dish for your repertoire, as it is relatively quick and fuss free to make.
Tomorrow, go see what Kayte, Chaya and Margaret thought of this dish.
Next week: Hummingbird slice
