Aromatic salmon cooked in coconut milk

Aromatic salmon cooked in coconut milk

INGREDIENTS
  • 4 thick salmon steaks
  • 2.5cm/1in piece root ginger, peeled and cut into small, very thin slices
  • 2 large cloves garlic, peeled and cut into small, very thin slices
  • 350g/12oz tomatoes, peeled and halved
  • 1 fresh red chilli, de-seeded and sliced as finely as possible
  • 1 small yellow pepper, de-seeded and thinly sliced
  • 4-6 cardamom pods, roughly crushed
  • 400ml/14fl oz tinned coconut milk
  • sea salt
  • 2 limes, juice only
  • handful of fresh mint leaves, chopped


INSTRUCTIONS
1. Put the salmon fish steaks in a fairly shallow ovenproof dish with a lid, into which they fit quite closely.
2. Scatter the ginger, garlic, tomato, chilli and yellow pepper over and around the fish and the cardamom pods in between.
3. Empty the coconut milk into a separate bowl, add a good sprinkling of sea salt and gradually stir in the lime juice. Pour the mixture gently over and around the fish and cover the dish.
4. Preheat the oven to 150C/300F/Gas 2. Put the dish on the centre shelf and cook for 40-50 minutes, until the fish is lightly done. To discover this insert a small, sharp knife into the centre of one of the steaks - if the flesh is slightly darker pink in the centre it will be perfectly cooked. Remove from the oven.
5. Before serving scatter the mint leaves on top.

Great Smoked salmon

Tyr this great salmon recipe...the Great Smoked Salmon

INGREDIENTS
  • 2 large Salmon fillets, leave the skin on.
  • 1 lemon
  • Johnny's seafood seasoning sour cream
  • dill weed
  • chunks of Alder wood
The important things are that you have a cover of some sort to keep the smoke circulating over and around the salmon as it cooks and that you use indirect heat as much as possible.
Use Weber Kettle . It is recommended .

INSTRUCTIONS
In the kitchen, cover the grill with foil leaving room at the sides for the heat and smoke to circulate.
Lay the salmon fillets skin side down on the foil.
Squeeze the juice from 1/2 of the lemon on each fillet.
Sprinkle liberally with the Johnny's seafood seasoning.
Let the fillets sit for 1/2 hour or so at this point to marinate.
Cover each fillet with about 1/4 inch of sour cream and sprinkle sparingly with the dill weed.
Place the alder chunks in water to soak for about 1/2 hour while you start the charcoal.
Once you get it started, divide the charcoal in half and pile it at the sides of the kettle for indirect cooking.
Use about 20-25 pieces in each pile

Place several pieces of alder on each side reserving some for about half way through the cooking process.
Put the salmon in, put the cover on and cook it for 20-25 minutes then add more alder and cook it for another 20-25 minutes, total cooking time is determined by the thickness of the fillets and outside temp.
Cooking time is around 50 minutes. Over cooked salmon is the pits.
The sour cream turns a golden brown, absorbs the smoke flavor and keeps the salmon nice and moist. The smoked salmon recipe is ready for feasts !. Enjoy it.
