Budget creamy salmon pasta
by
The Great British Budget Menu led to a huge online discussion about how hard (or easy) it was to prepare food which tasted high end but was made at the fraction of the price. Jack shares a super fast fish supper that only costs 27p a serving, yet tastes wonderful.
Ingredients
- 75g of fish paste, 32p
- 140g of pasta , 11p (39p/500g)
- 1/2 onion , 6p (11p each)
- 100g of natural yoghurt , 9p (45p/500g)
- 1 small red chilli , home grown
- 1 bunch of flat-leaf parsley , home grown
- 1 tbsp of lemon juice , 4p (60p/250ml)
- 1 dash of oil, optional
Method
1
First, bring a pot of water to the boil in a medium saucepan, and add the pasta. Reduce to a simmer and allow to cook for 8-10 minutes
2
Meanwhile, peel and finely slice the onion, and very finely chop the chilli and parsley. Add to a frying pan with the lemon juice and oil, and cook on a medium heat to soften the onion
3
When the pasta is cooked, remove from the heat and drain. Quickly stir the yoghurt and fish paste into the onions to warm through
4
Tip the pasta into the pan, coat with the sauce, and serve. Garnish with extra parsley and lemon juice if desired
