* Salmon pilau: I can't be bothered re-typing this, so I will scan it from my very old book of canned fish recipes. (It will serve me well in the coming climate apocalypse.) You don't really have to use Ally brand salmon, honest. It went over pretty well with the family. Perhaps needs a side salad too, though:
* Smoked salmon pasta:
Sort of made this up myself:
Sauté a large finely slice leek in some olive oil til soft; throw in some diced red capsicum for a while too, and some snow peas or something else green at the end. Pour in most of a can of evaporated milk, and a 185 g packet of hot smoke salmon and bring to boil and let reduce a bit. Pour over a packet of cooked pasta. Delicious.
Hot smoked salmon is the key here, but it is become more and more popular in supermarkets now. (I don't think you used to see it at all in the supermarket until a couple of years ago, but maybe I just wasn't looking.) Your normal smoked salmon goes too oily in flavour when heated in pasta.
Served four easily.
* Ham hock with spiced cabbage: I really liked this recipe, but the kids were only so-so about eating apple with cabbage and ham. As even my wife was non committal in her enthusiasm level, I may never get to cook it again. I may have to start cooking for strangers, preferably very hungry ones.
