Salmon With Coriander Dahl Food

SALMON WITH CORIANDER DAHL

Steps:

• Put the first 7 ingredients in a pan, bring to a simmer, cover and cook for 20 minutes until the lentils are tender.
• Stir in the coriander.
• Rub the salmon with vegetable oil, salt, pepper and a little garam masala.
• Grill for 6 to 7 minutes until just cooked.
• Break into large chunks and gently stir through the dahl.
• Serve with basmati rice and warm naan bread.

CORIANDER SALMON

Steps:

• In a small dish, combine the salt, pepper and coriander. Sprinkle over salmon. In a nonstick skillet, cook salmon in oil over medium heat for 4 minutes on each side. Add the garlic, lime juice and hot pepper sauce. Reduce heat; cover and cook 3-4 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

BAKED SALMON WITH CORIANDER AND THYME

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
• Line a baking dish with parchment paper or foil, large enough to fold over and seal.
• Place the fillets in the middle off the dish and sprinkle with coriander and thyme.
• Grind a little sea salt over the fillets.
• Place one or two lemon slices on each fillet.
• The lemon peel can be a bit strong; if you wish, you can remove the peel with a paring knife before putting the slices on the fillets.
• Fold the parchment paper over the fillets and staple or paper clip, or fold the foil and crimp to seal.
• Bake for about 18 minutes.
• When salmon is done remove to a plate.
• Place a fresh slice of lemon on each fillet and a sprig of fresh thyme, and serve.
• Variations: Add some shrimp and scallops in with the salmon.
• Anoint the salmon with a tablespoon of dry white wine or dry vermouth prior to adding the seasonings.

SALMON MARINATED IN GINGER AND CORIANDER

Steps:

• Slice salmon thinly ( 1/4 inch or less) widthwise, leaving strips about 2 inches long. Place in a mixing bowl.
• Add lime juice, onion, vinegar, oil, coriander, ginger, hot pepper, salt and pepper. Stir gently, and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours. Taste for seasoning before serving (it may need more salt; if so, blend it in thoroughly).
• Line small serving plates with lettuce of your choice, and place a serving of salmon over the lettuce.

GRILLED CHILLI & CORIANDER SALMON WITH GINGER RICE

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan and put the kettle on to boil. Fry the onion for a few mins until lightly browned. Stir in the ginger and garlic, fry for 1 min, then stir in the rice. Add 300ml boiling water and a little salt, then bring to the boil. Cover and cook for 10-12 mins until the rice is tender. Heat grill to medium.
• Brush a baking tray lightly with a little oil. Put the salmon on top and grill for 4-5 mins, then scatter with chilli, coriander, remaining olive oil and seasoning. Grill again for just 4-5 mins until the salmon is cooked through. Serve with the rice and lime halves for squeezing over.
