Steps:
- Season salmon on all sides with 1 tsp. salt. Let sit until ready to use.
- Cook coconut milk, curry paste, ginger, garlic, and remaining 1 tsp. salt in a large high-sided skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until simmering, 5-6 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cut bok choy stems into 1/2"-thick slices and leaves into 2" pieces. Rinse well and drain. Add to coconut milk mixture and stir to coat. Nestle salmon fillets into bok choy in an even layer. Cover pan and cook over medium-low heat until salmon is just cooked through and flesh is opaque, 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat and pour lime juice over salmon.

COCONUT-MISO SALMON CURRY
This light, delicate weeknight curry comes together in less than 30 minutes and is defined by its deep miso flavor. Miso is typically whisked into soups toward the end of the recipe, but sweating it directly in the pot with ginger, garlic and a little oil early on helps the paste caramelize, intensifying its earthy sweetness. Adding coconut milk creates a rich broth that works with a wide range of seafood. Salmon is used here, but flaky white fish, shrimp or scallops would all benefit from this quick poaching method. A squeeze of lime and a flurry of fresh herbs keep this curry bright and citrusy. For a hit of heat, garnish with sliced fresh jalapeño or serrano chile peppers.

THAI SALMON CURRY
I made this up being hungry for salmon but not wanting to do the familiar teriyaki routine. The results were delicious and also used up some hot peppers that were ready on my plants. And you can't believe how quick and easy this is to prepare! The hardest part is steaming the rice!

Steps:
- Remove the skin from the fillets (discarding skin) and cut the fish into medium/large cubes (about 1-inch size).
- Place the coconut milk into a large saute pan and add ginger, sugar, fish sauce, curry paste, and lime juice.
- Use a whisk to blend it until it is smooth.
- Bring the coconut milk to a boil and add the fish.
- Cook, turning fish gently to cook all sides as it cooks, for 5-7 minutes (depending on size of cubes or how well done you like your fish).
- Sprinkle curry with chopped basil and cilantro.
- Serve garnished with minced Thai bird chiles, if you like, but remember that these are very hot, and you might want to taste one small thin ring (preferably with some food) before adding a lot of them to your serving.
- Ladle into bowls over steamed jasmine rice.
SALMON BURGERS WITH CURRY MAYO AND ASIAN SLAW
Steps:
- Combine the diced salmon with the ginger, scallions, salt, pepper and egg in a mixing bowl and mix well. Form the salmon into 4 equal patties, and coat the tops and bottoms with the crushed breadcrumbs.
- Lightly oil a grill or griddle over medium heat. You will want to cook a small portion of the mixture to test for seasoning and then adjust with salt and pepper, as needed. Cook the patties, about 2 minutes per side.
- Slather 1 ounce of the Curry Mayo Sauce on the bottom bun, and top with the salmon burger, Asian Slaw and top bun and serve.
- Combine the mayonnaise, curry paste, salt, cayenne and lime juice in a mixing bowl and mix well. Taste for acid and seasoning, and adjust with more salt and lime juice, if needed.
- It is best to make the slaw ahead of time and let sit for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to really blend together.
- Combine the rice wine vinegar, ponzu, sugar, salt, pepper, lime juice, cucumbers, peppers and cabbages in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Taste for acid and seasoning and adjust with lime and salt, if needed.

Steps:
- Make the curry
- In a large skillet or sauté pan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat until shimmery. Add the garlic, ginger, and salt and cook, stirring frequently, until the garlic begins to turn golden, about 3 minutes. Add the curry paste and cook, stirring often, until very fragrant and a shade darker in color, about 4 minutes more. Add the peaches, stir well, and cook for a minute or so to allow the curry flavors to begin to season the peaches.
- Add the palm sugar and orange juice, increase the heat to medium-high, and let it all come to a strong simmer. Cook, adjusting the heat to maintain the simmer, until the peaches are cooked through but not mushy and the sauce has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon, 10 to 15 minutes. Keep warm.
- Make the dish
- In a small pot, bring the coconut cream to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, until it has reduced by about half (it'll have the texture of barely whipped cream), 18 to 20 minutes. Keep warm.
- Fire up a grill to cook with an area of medium heat and an area of low heat. Pat the salmon dry, spending a little extra time on the skin side. Rub just enough of the avocado oil onto the fillets to coat them with a very thin layer (excess oil will lead to flare-ups). Once the grill is ready, evenly season the salmon all over with the salt. Grill the salmon, skin-side down, on the area of medium heat until the skin is golden, a bit charred, and crispy, about 3 minutes.
- Carefully run a metal spatula between the grates and the skin (if the skin hasn't released from the grates just yet, wait another minute), then flip the fillets onto the area of low heat and cook until the salmon is cooked to your preference. For me, that's medium-rare to medium, when the center is light pink with a bit of translucence, about 3 minutes.
- Transfer the peach curry to a serving bowl or platter and top with the salmon, skin-side up. Drizzle on the coconut cream, then the jalapeño oil, and sprinkle on the Thai basil. Serve right away.
PAN-ROASTED SALMON WITH GINGER AND CURRY
Steps:
- Stir together ginger and curry and season with salt and pepper. Pat spice mixture onto flesh sides of salmon. Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then cook salmon, skin sides down, covered, 5 minutes. Turn salmon over and cook, covered, until just cooked through, about 2 minutes more.
- Add scallions to skillet with salmon and cook 30 seconds.
SALMON WITH YOGURT-CURRY SAUCE
With its rich flesh, salmon is so strongly flavored that you can pair it with just about anything. Here I cook it with a yogurt sauce that contains just chopped cucumber and spices. If you use farmed salmon and a nonstick skillet, you won't even need to add any fat. That's because farmed salmon is so high in fat (fattier than wild salmon, and it's the beneficial omega-3 type, too) that it's difficult to overcook. This is not to say you can put it on the stove and walk away, but that precision is a goal rather than a necessity. Even if you like your fish cooked through, the result will be a piece of meat that still has a fair amount of moisture in it.

Steps:
- If yogurt is very thin, put it in a cheesecloth-lined strainer over a bowl. Cut cucumber in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds. Chop flesh, sprinkle it with salt and put in a strainer over a bowl.
- If making spice mix (see note), combine all spices in a skillet and toast over medium heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Grind to a coarse powder in a spice mill.
- Put a skillet over medium heat; if it is other than nonstick, add oil. Season fish with salt and pepper and add it to pan; raise heat to medium high. Combine cucumber with yogurt and one tablespoon of spice mix in a bowl; taste and adjust seasoning.
- After salmon has cooked for 4 minutes, turn it and cook on other side another 2 to 5 minutes. Serve, browned side up, with sauce and lime on the side.

SALMON WITH THAI RED CURRY SAUCE, CABBAGE SALAD, AND JASMINE RICE
Steps:
- Make rice and set aside to keep warm. Make the salad by combining the cabbage, cilantro, mint and cucumbers in a bowl. Set aside. Make the dressing by mixing the soy sauce and vinegar in a small cup and setting it aside. Make the curry sauce by heating the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Saute the garlic and ginger for several minutes, then remove from the heat and add the coriander seeds, cumin, paprika, curry paste and cook over low heat for 2 minutes to release the oils, stirring constantly. Do not let it burn. Add the coconut milk, tomato paste, soy sauce, and brown sugar. Increase the heat and bring the mixture ALMOST to a boil, stirring constantly. Be careful and don't let it boil or it will separate. Remove from heat and keep warm, or reheat it very gently when ready to use. Cook the salmon by heating a heavy skillet and coating the surface with the olive oil. Season the fillet with salt and pepper. When the skillet is hot add the fillets and cook for about 3 minutes on each side or until the salmon is brown and translucent inside. Peek at the center of the fillets with the tip of a sharp knife. Don't overcook! To Serve: When your salmon is done, put about 1/2 cup of rice on a plate. Ladle some of the sauce around the rice. Place a fillet on top of the rice. Toss the salad with the dressing and place a tall mound of it on each fillet. Garnish with cilantro, and peanuts.

GRILLED SALMON WITH CURRY SAUCE
With good fresh salmon, less is always more. But sometimes I like to kick it up a notch with some Indian spices. This curry sauce can be made ahead and reheated while your salmon (or whatever type of fish you have) grillls. You can serve with steamed rice, but to be more carb friendly, sometimes I serve with cauliflower puree. In reviewing the nutritional content listed here, I don't agree with the carbohydrate content that has been calculated. The can of coconut milk has 2 grams of carbs per serving listed. So am stymied with how this system came up with over 50 grams per serving. Now if you include a few glasses of rose wine with this, maybe your carb content will be higher, but still not over 50 grams.

Steps:
- Cover dried chilies with some boiling water and allow to stand until softened, usually about 15 minutes. Handling carefully, so the chilies do not burn your hands, mince with scissors. If you are using fresh chilies, simply slice into rings.
- Dissolve tamarind paste in about a cup of water.
- Heat butter in a large skillet, then add onions. Let them caramelize slightly, then stir in 1 teaspoon each of turmeric and cumin powder. After a few minutes add dissolved tamarind paste, minced chilies, ginger, coconut milk and salt to taste. Since this will be rather thick, add some water. Then simmer to allow all these spices and flavors to marry. To add a little brightness, add the juice of an orange. Lime or lemon might be better. The sauce can be made ahead and reheated before grilling your fish. **The heat of this sauce is tempered by the flavor of the salmon. It can also be tempered with some raita or chutney on the side, or even just plain yogurt. OR instead of using 2 chilies, just use one.**.
- Sprinkle salmon with salt, a teaspoon of turmeric and a light dusting of cumin powder.
- Grill salmon over a hot fire, being careful not to overcook. Fresh salmon is far better when slightly rare, JMHO. I start with grilling the fleshy side down first. After 3-4 minutes, turn carefully so that skin side is down and grill another 3-4 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fillet. As you remove from the grill, the skin, which I don't find appetizing, will stick to the grill, easily skinning your fresh grilled fillet.
- Serve with the curry sauce and garnish with cilantro. Wash down with a chilled rose wine.
