Steps to make Salmon, Leek & Bean Pasta:
- Cook the French beans in salted, boiling water until al dente, about 8 minutes. Cut into 2.5 cm pieces and set aside, keeping warm.
- Cook the pasta in salted, boiling water according to instructions to reach the al dente point just ready for Step 6 below. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water in case needed at Step 6 below. Drain in a colander and toss in the small knob of butter.
- Heat the large knob of butter in a frying pan and cook the shallot on a medium heat until it begins to soften, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally if necessary to avoid sticking.
- Increase the heat to high and add the spring onions, chili and garlic and stir to mix. Cook for 1 minute then stir in the wine and then the cream and cook reasonably vigorously for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the beans and stir gently but thoroughly.
- Add the salmon pieces and continue for a further 3-4 minutes or until the fish is cooked. Stir if necessary.
- Add the pasta, quickly stir or toss to coat thoroughly (add a little of the reserved pasta water if, but only if, the mixture is looking dry) and serve immediately onto warmed pasta dishes. Add black pepper to taste.
Clean the leeks well, drain, then place them on a large rimmed baking sheet. Pour in the oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss well to coat the leeks thoroughly with the oil.
