Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion
- 250 g smoked
- ½ cup white wine
- 1 cup cream
- 1 tbsp crème fraîche
- 1 tbsp dill
- 1 tsp horseradish
- 1 pinch black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 pinch salt

Steps
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan.
- Gently sauté the onion for about 2 minutes until glassy.
- Put the salmon into the pan.
- Cook for another 3 minutes.
- Add the white wine, but be careful.
- Too much wine causes a distinctly winey taste.
- Wait for about 1 minute.
- Add the cream.
- Dissolve the crème fraîche.
- Stir in the horseradish.
- Let the sauce simmer until it thickens and absorbs the characteristic taste of the salmon.
- Add the dill last.
- Season with a pinch of freshly ground black pepper and salt.
- Be very careful with the salt when using smoked salmon as it already contains a significant amount of salt.
- Put the spaghetti on two serving plates.
- Add the sauce.
- Garnish the plate with a slice of lemon and some dill leaves.
- Serve immediately.
- Offer white wine with the dish.
