Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon brown mustard seeds
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh ginger
2 large cloves garlic, finely chopped
8 curry leaves*
1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon red chile powder
3/4 teaspoon garam masala
2 small tomatoes, chopped
4 tablespoons freshly grated fresh coconut
1 cup water
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoon chopped salted, roasted peanuts
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
10 1/2 ounces salmon fillet, skin removed, flesh cut into 1-inch cubes
4 wheat tortillas
Handful lettuce, shredded

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a pan over a medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the mustard seeds. Be careful as the mustard seeds will start to pop and splatter the oil.
  • Cover the pan with a lid and fry the mustard seeds for 20 to 30 seconds, or until they have stopped popping.
  • Add the onion, and fry for 3 to 4 minutes, or until golden brown. Add the ginger, garlic, and curry leaves, and fry for another 3 to 4 minutes, or until the garlic is golden brown.
  • Add the coriander, turmeric, chile powder, and garam masala, and stir until the mixture is well combined. Add the chopped tomatoes, grated coconut and the water. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer, cover the pan with a lid and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the ingredients have cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
  • Add the lemon juice, and chopped peanuts, and season well with salt, and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Add the salmon pieces, and continue to cook for 3 to 4 minutes, adding water as necessary to prevent the sauce from drying out, until the salmon is cooked through.
  • To serve, place one of the tortillas onto each serving plate. Arrange a thin line of the shredded lettuce down the center of each tortilla. Spoon over a portion of the salmon mixture and roll each tortilla up tightly into a sausage shape. Cut each wrap in half, and serve.
