Really easy one pot cooking. It was delicious. However I did add a little more cream.

The second time I cooked this, I cooked the spaghetti separately first. I drained it and cut it up small and stirred in the olive oil to stop it sticking. I kept the cooking water to cook the other ingredients. I just used extra crème fraiche to make it more indulgent. Much easier to eat with the chopped up spaghetti.

A really tasty dish. I used cavelo nero, which was great. I'll definitely cook this again

Very tasty! I put in courgettes instead of kale (which I had cooked down separately with olive oil and a pinch of salt). I also put in a bit more sour cream and no pasta water.

Jo 3 months ago

Very tasty. Love all the greens. Great summery pasta dish.

Sarah 3 months ago

This is the ideal recipe to use all the delicious spring veggies like peas and asparagus. I love how satisfying it is to just use a little less pasta and a lot more veg. Another definite keeper!

Less lemon- I used 1 for 4 people and that was plenty

Bridget 3 months ago

Not the best. I found the fish over cooked while I waited for the vegetables to cook. I would add the fish after the vegetables rather than the other way round. I would have preferred a thicker sauce that coated the spaghetti. Having said that it was tasty.

I thoroughly enjoyed this meal. I used plain yoghurt to stir in at the end and grated Parmesan over the dish at the end. Will definitely cook this again.
