This started off as a recipe from "Best Ever Three and Four Ingredient Cookbook", which I bought thinking it might be good for my son to practice his skills.

The basic premise is fish, a bit of herbs, pasta and creme fraiche. But the variations can be endless.

Ingredients:

bulletFish
bulletOnion
bulletHerbs e.g. tarragon, coriander, garlic etc
bulletOther vegetables e.g. mushrooms, beans or peas (can be frozen)
bulletPasta e.g. farfalle (little bows), fusilli (twists) or tagliatelle (long flat noodles)
bulletCreme fraiche
bulletOlive oil

Basic method:

bulletSelect some fish e.g. salmon, cod, haddock or cobbler, tuna, tilapia etc fillets. Remove bones before cooking.
bulletCut fish into pieces.
bulletSlice onion and, if using fresh herbs, chop them finely.
bulletPut a small amount of olive oil in a large heavy based pan and fry onion and herbs.
bulletChuck in the fish and stir around
bulletChop the vegetables in required and add to pan.
bulletCook pasta to just underdone point
bulletDrain pasta and rinse in cold water.
bulletChuck pasta into other pan with the fish and vegetables.
bulletStir in two dessert spoons of creme fraiche and mix thoroughly
bulletServe and eat.

This dish is really quick to prepare
