Saturday Salmon

We found some Canadian smoked salmon on sale on Friday, so that's what we had last night.

I made a pasta sauce by gently cooking some thinly sliced onions in olive oil with a bit of garlic until the onions started to color, adding cream and reducing it a bit, adding the smoked salmon (cut into thin strips) and some peas. I let this heat through then served it over whole-wheat penne with some chives and fresh basil.

This was quite nice: the more substantial pasta was a good counter to the richness of the sauce.

As a side we had spinach cooked with pine nuts, raisins, and sherry.

Oh, and a big green salad.
