Ingrediencie

1 small red onion, sliced

Juice of one lemon

1 tsp coconut or veg oil

2 salmon fillet with skin

2 garlic clove, crushed

3inch piece ginger, finely grated

3 tsp curry powder (mild or hot)

1.5 tsp tamarind paste (or juice ½ lime)

One tin low fat coconut milk

1 red chilli, sliced

1 small bunch coriander, leaves picked

1 tsp nigella seeds

Steamed basmati or jasmine rice to serve

Postup

Mix the onion and lemon juice in a small bowl with a pinch of salt. Set aside.

Heat half the oil in a small frying pan over a high heat. Fry the salmon skin-side down for 2 minutes, then flip and cook for a minute more. Set aside. (If salmon is big add a few minutes each side)

Mix the garlic, ginger, curry powder, tamarind/lime juice and a pinch of salt in a small bowl to make a thick paste. Wipe the pan clean with kitchen paper, then put back over a medium heat. Add the remaining oil, then fry the spice paste for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the coconut milk, bring to a gentle simmer, then cook for 5-10 minutes to thicken slightly. Gently put the salmon fillet skin-side up in the sauce and cook for 2 minutes more or until cooked to your liking. Taste the sauce – you might want to add a pinch of sugar to balance the flavours.

Meanwhile, squeeze the onion to remove most of the liquid (discard), then combine the onion with the chilli and coriander. Serve the salmon in the sauce, topped with the onion and coriander salad and sprinkled with the nigella, with basmati or jasmine rice.
