This high-calcium, quick, and healthier carbonara is the perfect way to use up leftover cooked salmon.
1 Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and cook spaghetti according to packet instructions (usually around 10-12 minutes or until al dente).
2 Place cottage cheese in a food processor and blitz, adding milk slowly to create a smooth consistency. Add eggs, parsley, salmon and half the parmesan. Mix again until combined.
3 Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add garlic, peas and mushrooms and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring often to ensure garlic does not brown. Turn off heat.
4 Transfer cooked spaghetti to frying pan using tongs, reserving cooking water. Pour cottage cheese mixture into pan. Move spaghetti around to coat pasta and thicken egg mix. Add 2-3 tablespoons of the pasta water to ensure pasta stays saucy and creamy.
5 Divide pasta between 4 serving bowls. Top with a handful of rocket leaves, sprinkle with remaining parmesan and black pepper and serve immediately.
Make it gluten free: Use gluten-free pasta.
*Note: Cost per serve will be less if using leftovers.
