Method

  1. 1

    Cook the linguine in a large pan of salted boiling water until al dente.

  2. 2

    Melt the butter in a frying pan over a medium-low heat. Add the garlic and soften for 2 minutes without colouring.

  3. 3

    Pour in the cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the lemon zest, a squeeze of juice and the capers. Simmer for 3 minutes until slightly thickened.

  4. 4

    Tear the smoked salmon into strips and stir into the cream sauce. Remove from the heat so the salmon doesn't overcook.

  5. 5

    Drain the linguine, reserving a splash of pasta water, and toss through the sauce, adding a little cooking water to loosen.

  6. 6

    Chop the dill and scatter over. Serve immediately with extra lemon wedges.
