Thai Spiced Salmon
1 inch piece of grated fresh root ginger
1 teaspoon of coriander seeds, crushed
1/4 teaspoon of chili powder
1 tablespoon of lime juice
1 teaspoon of sesame oil
4 medium salmon fillets with skin
2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
boiled rice and stir fried vegetables to serve
Mix the grated root ginger, crushed coriander seeds and chili powder in a
small bowl. Add lime juice and sesame oil.
Place the salmon fillers side by side on a wide non metallic plate or dish
and spoon the spice mixture over the flesh side, spreading it to coat each
fillet evenly.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and chill the salmon in the refrigerator
for 30 minutes for the flavors to penetrate.
Pour the oil into a wide, heavy based skillet or griddle pan and heat it to
a high temperature. Place the salmon on the hot pan or griddle, skin side
down.
Cook the salmon for 4 - 5 minutes, without turning, until the fillets are
crusty underneath and the flesh flakes easily. Transfer immediately to
warmed plates and serve at once with the boiled rice and stir fried
vegetables. Serves 4
