Recipe - Fettucine With Smoked Salmon Leeks And Cream.

One half pound Package spinach fettucine
2/3 cup Half and half or whipping
cream
150 g Package of smoked salmon.
2 Leeks (white part only)
coarsely chopped
3 tablespoon Olive oil
2 teaspoon Coarsegrained mustard
2 teaspoon Drained capers
1 teaspoon Lemon juice
One fourth cup White wine
White pepper to taste
1 Clove garlic, minced finely

I made this pasta last night, I don't make it often because it is
definitely not lowfat. We had this dish at the Bimini Boatyard restaurant
in Ft.Lauderdale and this was my attempt at duplicating it.

Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan, saute the leeks and garlic until
softened but not browned. Add the lemon juice and wine, cook until liquid
is reduced by about half. Stir in mustard, then add the cream, simmer until
thickened. Add salmon, capers, pepper and heat gently just until salmon
loses some transparency.

Toss with hot cooked pasta, serves two.

We had it with a Sauvignon Blanc from J&F Lurton, Domaine des Salices.
