Recipe: baked (!) pasta with salmon
Three friends who prepare seriously delicious dishes with lots of fun and a mountain of passion: that’s the men of De Worsten van Babel. Wherever Jasper and Marius Gottlieb and Hugo Kennis go, cooking simply has to happen. Preferably with whatever is available and ingredients sourced as locally as possible. In De Worsten van Babel koken overal, you learn how to cook duck breast sous vide in a cool box or how to make this baked pasta with salmon yourself.
“At the Gottliebs’ home, it was mainly mama Marijn who used to cook. It was always delicious. So we’re not exactly doing her justice here by including a recipe from papa Sebastiaan in our book, but that’s because it’s both incredibly delicious and something we’ve never seen anywhere else. We called it Pasta è Sebasta, but in fact it’s a colourful baked pasta. Yes, baked pasta. Although we’re normally very accommodating when it comes to adapting recipes to your own taste, this recipe does come with one requirement: you must use green tagliatelle. That’s the tradition, and traditions should be cherished. At least ours.”
How to make the baked pasta with salmon
- Bring a pan of plenty of water and lots of salt to the boil, and cook the green tagliatelle until it is almost al dente. Meanwhile, heat your finest large frying pan with a splash of sunflower oil over high heat.
- Drain the green tagliatelle, spread it evenly over the frying pan and leave it to rest for a moment. After 5 minutes, check whether the underside is already brown and crispy.
- Once the underside of the green tagliatelle is brown and crispy, turn the frying pan over a large plate so that the underside is facing up.
- Spread crème fraîche over the top and sprinkle the lemon zest over it. Sprinkle with pink peppercorns, arrange the slices of salmon on top and drizzle everything with the lemon juice and a little olive oil.
- Finely chop the flat-leaf parsley and chives, and sprinkle these over the green tagliatelle as well.
