Ingredients
- 350g dried tagliatelle
- 400g skinless salmon fillets

- 2 shallots, finely chopped
- 200g frozen peas

Chef's tip
If the salmon you buy is not skinned, cook it with the skin on, then peel off and discard it after cooking – it’s easier than skinning it raw and you won’t cut off and waste any fish.
Wine Recommendation
A fruity Sicilian white will strike the right balance between juicy flavour and fresh crispness.
