Method

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Cook the fusilli for 2 minutes less than packet instructions and drain. Place the salmon in the boiling water for the last 5 minutes, then lift out, remove the skin and flake.

  2. 2

    Trim and slice the leeks. Melt the butter in a pan and soften the leeks for 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Stir the flour into the leeks and cook for 1 minute. Gradually add the milk and cream, stirring until a smooth sauce forms. Season lightly.

  4. 4

    Stir in half the gruyère, then fold in the pasta and flaked salmon. Tip into an ovenproof dish.

  5. 5

    Scatter the remaining gruyère over the top and bake for 20 minutes until golden and bubbling.
