Smoked Salmon, Crème Fraiche and Dill Conchiglie Rigate Yorkshire Pasta

By:@yorkshirepasta

This is a beautifully light dish that can be enjoyed as a tasty lunch or as a decadent supper. Simply double up the sauce for the later.

The citrus helps lift the salmon in this simple creamy dish that is complimented so well by the dill.

A classic combination and a match in heaven with our scrumptious British pasta shells.  

Serves 2.
