SIMPLE AS CAN BE: The final dish, straightforward, no-nonsense, done! Pictures by Dana Morcan

■ 200g fusilli pasta (or choose another variety — penne pasta also works quite well in this dish)

■ A courgette or two, chopped

■ A few spring onions, finely chopped

■ Large can — or two small cans — of smoked salmon

■ Fresh chives (as much or as little as you like)

■ 1 x lemon, grated

■ A few drops of Tabasco® sauce (if you like a bit of heat to your dishes)

■ Extra virgin olive oil

■ Salt and pepper to taste

1. Cook pasta according to packet instructions. Drain.

2. Heat a little olive oil in a frying pan.

3. Fry courgettes. Throw in drained, canned salmon - heat through.

4. Whack in the drained pasta. Mix together well.

5. Finally, add the lemon zest, spring onions, chives, a few drops of Tabasco® sauce and some salt and/or pepper to taste. Serve.
