Method

To make salmon pasta without cream, start by washing the cherry tomatoes carefully. Cut them into wedges and sauté them in a skillet with a drizzle of oil, the finely chopped shallot and the garlic clove. When the tomatoes have softened well and their juices have almost completely evaporated, add the smoked salmon cut into thin strips and cook until the salmon changes color.
While the salmon and tomato sauce finishes cooking, cook the pasta shape of your choice in plenty of salted water and drain it while still al dente. Add the pasta to the skillet, sprinkle with plenty of freshly ground pepper and finish cooking, letting the flavors come together. When it is ready, take the salmon pasta off the heat and serve it piping hot. Finally, remember to download our App with exclusive content and fewer ads!

Variations and Alternatives

If you prefer, you can make salmon pasta without cream using ricotta instead of the cherry tomatoes. Simply sauté the smoked salmon in a skillet with a drizzle of oil, add the al dente pasta and then the sieved ricotta right away. Stir everything together carefully and you will have a tasty white version of salmon pasta without cream.

Tips

If you want to shorten the cooking time, remove the pulp from the cherry tomatoes, and perhaps add a teaspoon of tomato paste, which will make your pasta even more colorful.

Storage

Salmon pasta without cream keeps for 1 day in the fridge. Reheat it in a skillet with a drizzle of oil.
