Ingredients: Serves 2
For the fresh tagliatelle:
200g of ‘00’ flour
Pinch of salt
2 eggs
½ teaspoon of olive oil
For the roast smoked salmon sauce:
200g of Inverawe Roast Smoked Salmon
50 to 100ml of sour cream or crème fraiche
A good handful of fresh dill, finely chopped
Juice and zest of half a lemon
Salt and pepper to season
Method
For the fresh tagliatelle:
1 Combine the flour, eggs, salt and olive oil together in a food processor to form a firm dough.
2 Put the dough onto a floured surface and begin to knead lightly. Roll out as thinly as possible using a rolling pin
or a pasta machine (if you have one).
3 Begin to cut the dough into thin strips lengthways. Lightly dust the pasta with flour to stop it from sticking and set aside to dry slightly before cooking.
For the pasta sauce:
1 flake the roast smoked salmon and put to one side.
2 In a bowl, mix the sour cream or crème fraiche, lemon juice and zest together.
3 Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Place the fresh tagliatelle in the water and allow it to float to the surface. This should take roughly 3 minutes. Once cooked, drain at add the creamy mix.
4 Fold the flaked salmon and dill into the pasta, season and serve with French bread and a chilled white wine.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
