250mL double cream

  3. Increase the heat and add the wine. Cook for 2 minutes before adding the salmon trimmings
  4. Once the salmon just starts to change colour to a pink tinge, add the cream and gently fold through
  5. Cook for 5 minutes then add the pasta to the sauce and cook for another 3-5 minutes or until the pasta is warmed through. Add the lemon zest and dill and stir through
