Step 2 Make the sauce and assemble:
Peel and chop the onion and sauté in a separate pan until translucent. Season the cream with any spices, add the vegetable stock and simmer briefly. Mix the cornstarch with cold milk, add and simmer again for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce becomes creamy.
Wash the baby spinach and add to the sauce. Simmer on medium heat with the lid on for about 3-5 minutes until the spinach wilts. Turn off the heat, mix the sauce in the pan with the pre-cooked pasta and parmesan and serve with a piece of fried wild salmon.
