Thai Spiced Fillet Of Salmon Food

RED THAI SALMON CURRY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pan, then add the curry paste. Stir in the onion, then cook gently for about 5 mins until softened. Pour in the coconut milk and bring to the boil. Reduce to a simmer, then add the salmon chunks and beans.
• Leave to gently simmer for 5 mins until the fish flakes easily and the beans are tender. Scatter with the coriander or basil, and serve with plain rice.

BROILED SALMON WITH THAI SWEET CHILI GLAZE

Steps:

• Set the oven rack 5-6 inches from the top and preheat the broiler.
• Make the marinade by combining the sweet chili sauce, soy sauce and ginger in a shallow baking dish. Spoon ¼ cup of the marinade into a small dish and set aside (this will be the sauce for the cooked fish). Add the salmon fillets, skin side up, to the remaining marinade and marinate for 1 hour in refrigerator.
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Transfer the salmon fillets to the prepared baking sheet, skin side down, and drizzle a bit of the marinade over top. Go easy -- you don't want it to pool too much on the baking sheet because it will burn in the oven. Broil the salmon for 6-10 minutes, or until browned in spots and almost opaque in the center. Transfer the salmon to a serving platter and pour the reserved sauce over top. Garnish with scallions and serve.

THAI SALMON IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil. To make the sauce, whisk together chili sauce, soy sauce, garlic, fish sauce, ginger, lime juice and Sriracha in a small bowl; set aside. Place salmon onto prepared baking sheet and fold up all 4 sides of the foil. Spoon the chili sauce mixture over the salmon. Fold the sides of the foil over the salmon, covering completely and sealing the packet closed. Place into oven and bake until cooked through, about 15-20 minutes. Serve immediately, garnished with peanuts and cilantro, if desired.

ONE-PAN THAI GREEN SALMON

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Put the oil in a deep roasting tin or dish about 30 x 25cm and toss through the shallots, chilli, potatoes and lemongrass. Roast for 10 mins until fragrant, keeping an eye on the shallots to ensure they don't burn. Remove from the oven and stir in the curry paste to coat everything. Return to the oven for 2 mins until its aroma is released before mixing in the coconut milk and 200ml stock. Put back in the oven again for 15-20 mins until the sauce is slightly thickened and the potatoes are turning tender.
• Season to taste with the fish sauce and sugar, then stir through the courgette ribbons and spinach. Add another 50ml-100ml stock now if the sauce is too thick, but be aware that the courgette and spinach will release some water as well. Nestle the salmon fillets in the sauce and bake for a further 10-15 mins until the salmon is cooked to your liking.
• Add the lime juice and taste the sauce for a balance of sweet and sour, adding more lime juice and fish sauce, if you like. Scatter over the spring onions, if using, along with the herbs and chilli. For a more filling meal, serve with rice or noodles and the lime wedges on the side.

THAI SALMON NOODLES

Steps:

• Cook the noodles following the pack instructions, rinse and drain. Heat the oil in a deep saucepan and fry the curry paste for 1 min until fragrant. Add the spring onions, reserving 1 tbsp, the sweet potato, stock and milk, bring quickly to the boil and simmer for 5 mins until the potato is tender. Add the salmon pieces and cook for 2 mins, then stir in half the coriander.
• Divide the noodles between 4 bowls and spoon over the salmon and sauce. Sprinkle over the remaining coriander and spring onions.

PAN-SEARED SALMON WITH A TANGY THAI SAUCE

Steps:

• To make the marinade/sauce, place all marinade ingredients together in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir as you bring the sauce to a boil.
• Reduce heat to medium and allow to simmer for 10 minutes, uncovered. The sauce will gradually thicken (the smell of the vinegar is rather pungent as it cooks). When marinade/sauce has thickened, place in the refrigerator or freezer to cool for 5 minutes.
• Place salmon fillets in a flat-bottomed pan or casserole dish (so that fillets aren't piled on top of each other). When the sauce/marinade has cooled (warm instead of hot), spoon 2 tablespoons over each fillet, 1 per side, slathering it over the flesh (reserve the remaining sauce for later). Marinate in the refrigerator 10 minutes or up to 24 hours.
• Place a frying pan or wok on medium-high heat, allowing it to warm up for at least 1 minute before adding the oil (this will help prevent the fish from sticking).
• When pan is hot, add 1-2 tablespoons oil, lifting and turning the pan to distribute evenly. Now place fillets in the pan.
• Allow salmon to fry at least 2 minutes undisturbed before turning. If you turn the fish too soon, it will stick. Instead, allow it to "sear", and it will come freely away from the bottom of the pan.
• Fry the fish 3-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fish. Salmon is done when inner flesh is no longer transparent. For faster cooking, cover fish while it's frying.
• To serve: arrange on a serving platter or plates. Spoon a little of the sauce over each fillet. Place the rest in a side dish and serve as a dipping sauce (it can be re-heated or served at room temperature).

BAKED SALMON WITH THAI MARINADE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400.
• In a small bowl, mix all ingredients except fish.
• Place fish in a shallow pan. Spoon marinade over fillets.
• Marinade for at least an hour.
• Bake 15 minutes or done to your liking (can turn fish over halfway through cooking).

THAI STYLE SALMON FILLET

Steps:

• Start by using a pestle and mortar to crush up the garlic and ginger. Pound it in a while to release the flavor. Now add the chili and coriander and finally the lime to create a marinade.
• Now, heat a good quality pan so it's hot.
• While this happens, spread the marinade from the mortar onto the skinless side of the salmon fillet. Now add a little salt.
• Next, add a good sized knob of butter into the hot dish and place the salmon into the pan, skin size down on a medium to high heat.
• Allow the salmon to cook for about 6-8 minutes allowing the skin to become crispy and also cook the salmon a little too.
• Now turn it about, so the salmon is on the marinade bed and allow it to cook on a medium heat. Allow to cook for about 15 minutes.
• The bed will burn on the pan side, but the salmon will remain unburnt, so don't worry!
• After about 15 minutes, the salmon should be cooked through depending on the thickness of the fillet.
• Remove carefully and serve on a plate with the skin size down.
• Serve with a combination of items, including stir-fry noodles, or traditional vegetables including new potatoes, green vegetables or maybe something a little more experimental!

GRILLED SALMON WITH THAI CURRY SAUCE AND BASMATI RICE

Steps:

• Make rice:
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• In a saucepan with an ovenproof lid bring rice, water, and butter to boil. Bake rice, covered, in middle of oven 12 minutes. Keep rice warm.
• Make sauce:
• In a heavy saucepan sauté gingerroot and garlic in oil over moderately high heat, stirring, until golden. Add coriander, curry powder, curry paste, paprika, and cumin and sauté, stirring, 1 minute, or until fragrant. Whisk in coconut milk, tomato purée, soy sauce, and brown sugar and bring just to a boil. Remove pan from heat and keep warm.
• Prepare vegetables:
• In a bowl toss together all vegetable ingredients.
• Prepare grill.
• Brush salmon with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Grill salmon on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until just cooked through, about 5 minutes on each side.
• Put each in center of 4 plates and arrange salmon on top. Top salmon with vegetables and spoon sauce around it. Sprinkle vegetables with peanuts.
