Gluten free pasta salad – salmon and capers
400g fresh salmon
3 tbsps capers in brine, finely chopped
1/4 cucumber peeled and cut into thin matchsticks
250g cooked gluten free pasta – spirals or penne are probably best
Juice 1 lemon
4 tbsps soya/dairy yoghurt (optional)
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
Poach the salmon until just cooked, or microwave if you prefer. Flake with a fork. Mix with capers, cucumber, lemon juice and yoghurt if using. Mix in with gluten free pasta and season to taste. Add more lemon juice if you want it sharper.
