Subj : 23's Top 50 Recipes - 25 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Tue Jan 09 2024 16:47:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Green Curry Salmon w/Coconut Rice Categories: Seafood, Curry, Vegetables, Rice, Herbs Yield: 5 servings 1 1/2 lb Skinless salmon fillets Fine sea salt & fresh ground - black pepper 4 tb Green curry paste 2 tb Virgin coconut oil 1 bn Scallions, whites and greens - thinly sliced 2 Garlic cloves, finely grated - or minced 14 1/2 oz Can unsweetened, full-fat - coconut milk 1 3/4 c Sushi or other short-grain - rice, rinsed well 2 c Chopped baby spinach 1 c Chopped cilantro leaves and - tender stems Lime wedges; to serve Lightly season salmon with salt and pepper, and spread 1 tablespoon curry paste all over the fillets. Set aside. Heat oil in a 5 or 6 quart Dutch oven over medium. Stir in scallion whites and most of the greens, reserving 2 tablespoons scallion greens for garnish. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and a pinch of salt, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute longer. Stir in coconut milk, remaining 3 tablespoons green curry, 1 1/2 cups water and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Stir in rinsed rice and reduce heat to low. Let simmer, covered and stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes. Using a wooden spoon, gently fold in spinach, cilantro and a pinch of salt. If the rice looks dry and threatens to stick to the bottom of the pot, stir in 2 to 4 tablespoons more water. Place salmon filets on top of rice, raise heat to medium-low and cook, covered, until salmon is just cooked through, 12 to 20 minutes, depending on thickness. Remove from heat and taste rice for doneness. If the salmon is done before the rice, gently remove the fish from the pan using a metal spatula, transfer to a plate and tent with an overturned bowl or foil to keep warm, then continue to cook rice until tender, adding more water if the rice seems dry. Taste and season with salt as needed. Squeeze a lime wedge over the salmon and serve immediately, garnished with reserved scallions and more lime wedges on the side.
