Ingredients 

• 200g spaghetti
• 1 small head of broccoli, chopped into small florets
• 200g frozen peas
• 100g cream cheese
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 150g hot-smoked salmon, any skin removed, flaked
• 70g Parmesan, grated

Method 

1. Heat a large saucepan of water. When boiling, add the spaghetti and cook according to the packet instructions.
2. Meanwhile, heat a smaller saucepan of water, and when boiling add the broccoli and peas. Cook for 3 minutes.
3. Drain (retaining a few tbsp of water in the pan) and place the vegetables in a bowl of cold water, which will help them retain their colour and crunch.
4. Using the same saucepan, add the cream cheese to the retained water and mix together while bringing to a simmer on a low heat.
5. Add back in the drained vegetables, plus the lemon juice, and season well with salt and pepper. 
6. Add in the flaked salmon and stir gently to combine.
7. Drain the spaghetti and place back in the empty saucepan. Add the sauce to the pan and stir through.
8. Divide between 4 bowls and sprinkle over the Parmesan.
