Best Salmon And Prawn Curry Recipes

SALMON COCONUT CURRY

Steps:

• Cut the salmon into 4 equal pieces. Pat both sides dry with paper towel and season it with salt & pepper.
• Add the oil and butter to a skillet over medium-high heat. Let the pan heat up for a few minutes. Prep your carrots and broccolini.
• Cook the salmon, skin-side down, for 5 minutes. Flip it and cook for another 2-3 minutes (the fish should be almost done). If the fish is sticking at any point, give it a little longer to release naturally (don't force it).
• Take the salmon out of the pan and transfer it to a plate. If you don't want to eat the salmon skin, you can easily slide it off before adding the salmon back into the pan.
• Spoon some of the oil out of the skillet so you have about a tablespoon of it left in there.
• Add the onion to the skillet and sauté for about 3 minutes (should be getting lightly browned), then stir in the curry paste and garlic and cook for 1 minute.
• Add in the fish sauce, coconut milk, sugar, carrots, and broccolini. Let it gently bubble for about 5 minutes or so. The veggies should be tender-crisp, but you can cook them for a little longer if you prefer.
• Stir in the lime juice, then add the fish back to the pan. Season with more salt & pepper as needed. Let it warm through for a couple of minutes. Sprinkle with the basil and cilantro and serve immediately.

FRAGRANT COCONUT, SALMON & PRAWN TRAYBAKE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat the oil in a deep frying pan or wok, and fry the curry paste, garlic and ginger for 1 min. Stir in the coconut milk and chilli, and bring to a simmer. Add the fish sauce and lime leaves, if using.
• Pour the mixture into a medium roasting tin, and nestle in the salmon, pak choi and mangetout. Cover and cook in the oven for 15 mins. Scatter in the prawns and cook for a further 10 mins. Garnish with the coriander and serve with the lime wedges and rice.

PAN-FRIED SALMON IN CURRY CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine cream, curry powder, lemon juice, and ginger in a skillet and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and slide salmon into the cream. Cover and simmer until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 12 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets. Flip 1 to 2 times while cooking. Season with salt and pepper.

SEAFOOD CURRY

Steps:

• For the curry sauce, whizz the onion and ginger together to a purée. Heat the oil in a large pan until smoking. Add the garam marsala and sizzle for 30 secs, then add the onion and ginger purée, reduce the heat and slowly cook for 5 mins. Add the remaining spices, fry for 1 min, stir in the chilli and fry for another min, then add the tomatoes and a good pinch of salt and grind of pepper, and stir well. You can do this way in advance, then just throw the curry together on the night - the sauce will freeze or keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• To make the curry, melt a third of the ghee in a large pan. Cook the white fish for 2-3 mins until lightly browned, then set aside on a plate. Repeat this process with the salmon and prawns, adding another third of ghee each time. For the mussels, heat a medium-sized saucepan on a high heat. Add the mussels with 2 tbsp of water, cover tightly with a lid, and steam for 3-4 mins, shaking the pan every so often. Drain and set aside with the other seafood.
• Bring the sauce to the boil, stir the fish and mussels in gently, bring to the boil again, then remove from the heat and leave for 3-4 mins - the fish will finish cooking in the heat from the sauce. Add the coriander leaves and serve with Spiced rice and Carrot & cumin salad (see 'Goes well with' on the right of this page).

INDIAN SHRIMP (PRAWN) CURRY

• Meanwhile, cook the rice according to packet instructions. Cover and keep warm.
• Heat 1 tbs oil in a wok or frypan over medium-high heat. Add prawns and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until lightly golden. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add the remaining 1 tbs oil to the pan, reduce the heat to medium, then add onion and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the tomato, then cover and simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes until tomato is softened.
• Return prawns to pan with yoghurt and cilantro, then warm through, stirring, for 1 minute.
• Season to taste, then serve with rice.
