Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 ounces penne
salt and pepper
10 ounces broccoli, cut into large florets
1 ounce butter
1 ounce all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups milk
4 ounces mascarpone
8 sun-dried tomatoes (preserved in olive oil)
2 tablespoons capers, rinsed to remove excess salt (optional) or 2 tablespoons vinegar (optional)
8 anchovy fillets, halved (optional)
10 basil leaves, roughly torn
4 salmon fillets, skinless
2 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, finely grated

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375F and get out an ovenproof dish (measuring 8 by 12in, and about 2in deep).
  • Meanwhile, put a large pan of water on to boil for the pasta. When it is boiling rapidly, tip in the pasta with a generous sprinkling of salt.
  • Give it a stir, return to the boil and cook for 6 minutes. Add the broccoli, then return the water to the boil and cook for 4 minutes more, until the broccoli is on the firm side of just tender. Drain well.
  • While the pasta is cooking, put the butter, flour and milk in a large pan and heat, whisking or stirring continuously, until it thickens to make a smooth sauce.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the mascarpone, sun-dried tomatoes, capers (if using), anchovies (if using) and basil, then add the pasta and broccoli and season well.
  • Halve the salmon fillets widthways (you will see that there is an obvious divide on each fillet) then place the pieces in a single layer on the base of the ovenproof dish.
  • Spoon the broccoli mixture on top, then scatter with the grated cheddar. (You can chill this for up to 4 hours if you want to get ahead.)
  • Bake for 30 minutes until the mixture is just starting to bubble round the edges and the mixture is pale golden - don't let it go too dark or the fish will overcook.

The salmon was a bit dry, but the broccoli was good.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.
