LEKKER LINGUINE
Boil the kettle. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. Cook the pasta until al dente, 10-12 minutes. Drain and toss through a drizzle of olive oil.
FRY THE FISHCAKE
Air fry the fishcakes at 200°C until crispy, 10-15 minutes (shifting halfway). Alternatively, place a pan over medium heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the fishcakes until golden and crispy, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel. Season.
GARLIC BECHAMEL
While the pasta and fishcakes are cooking, dilute the stock with 100ml of water. Place a pot over medium heat with 20g of butter. When melted, add the flour and cook out, 1-2 minutes. Stir in the garlic powder and the diluted stock, 1 minute. Add the Cream and simmer until slightly thickened, 3-4 minutes (stirring occasionally). Remove from the heat and toss through the drained pasta, the cheese, and seasoning. Add a splash of water if it’s too thick for your liking.
TASTY & TRENDY
Bowl up the creamy garlic pasta. Top with the fishcakes. Scatter over the chilli flakes (to taste) and garnish with the chopped Parsley.
