Salmon "Alfredo" Sauce


This dish is a real "fast-food". Done while the noodles boil.

When I served this noodle dish my dear husband started wailing: " I thought we would have salmon for dinner? Didn't you see the salmon in the fridge?"
I kept mum and we started eating.
After the first bite he looked at me and asked incredulous: "Noodles with salmon?"
"Well, you wanted salmon - this is "Gourmet Rotini Noodles with Salmon Alfredo Sauce!"
It is to say that NOTHING was left.


 

The sauce is basically the same as yesterdays, just add black pepper, tomato and parmesan.



Make a thick sauce and add the salmon pieces just about 5 minutes before serving.

Ingredients for 2

1 tblsp butter
2 tblsp flour
1 cup of milk
2 tblsp sour cream
1 tomato, diced ( i added one of my oven-dried tomatoes as well)
1 tblsp grated parmesan
1/2 pound salmon, cubed
salt
pepper
parsley
garlic? (optional)

Cook noodles as described on the package.

Done.

Sparrow, Salmon and Strawberries

In the morning we had an involuntary little guest. A birdie that hit the window sat for a few minutes dazzled on the porch. After a heated discussion we found out it was a white throated sparrow.

Closer you cannot come to take a photo, I guess.

J.P. went shopping today and came back with a piece of fresh 
salmon and strawberries. In Norway we were used to have 
salmon and have strawberries with cream for dessert. 
True to tradition wrapped the salmon in aluminum foil 
and J.P. put it on the grill. Meanwhile a salad was prepared 
and the strawberries hulled.
When we sat down for supper hubby said: "Dette er et Kongemåltid!" which means that we dined like Royalty.
