Make Cheese Sauce:
Toss with salmon balls and cooked spaghetti.
Poster's Notes:
I don't use the lemon juice or the reserved liquid. The original recipe calls for 2 cups of bread crumbs, because I don't add the liquid, I use only about 1 cup of bread crumbs.
This is a recipe I have been making for many years. My family loves it so much so that my newly married daughter just asked for the recipe. Since I typed it up for her, I am sharing it will all my foodie friends.
