What Sup: Salmon, pea and baby marrow pasta in a creamy sauce

Marisa and I made a fantastic dinner for friends, it was quick and simple and everyone had seconds (which is always a good sign)
You will need :
1 tub salmon cream cheese (Simonsberg always a good choice)
1 packet pasta-fresh always better
5 large baby marrows sliced in ribbons
1 packet Spring onions
1 cup peas
salmon pieces (up to you as to how much you would like in the dish)
1 garlic clove chopped
2 tbs butter salt and pepper to taste

Start by frying onions, garlic and the salmon pieces in butter.
Set aside and boil pasta as per the instructions on packet. 5 min before the pasta ready add baby marrow and peas to cook with noodles. Reserve 125ml of pasta water and drain noodles. Now add the tub of cream cheese to the fried salmon, stir in the water you set aside and stir till it makes a creamy sauce.Coat noodles in the sauce and serve.
