Recipe 1:Green Thai Bowl with Coconut Poached Coho Salmon
Ingredients
Serves 4
6 Green Chillies (I like to use Jalepeno as they are milder than others)
1 Finger of Galangal (chopped) - if you cannot find galangal sub it with ginger
1 handful Small of Holy Basil Leaves plus more for garnish
4 Shallots
4 Garlic Cloves
1 handful small cilantro stems and leaves plus more for garnish
1 teaspoon ground roasted coriander
1 teaspoon ground roasted cumin
1 teaspoon Fish Paste
1 Lime Juice only plus another for garnish
2 Lemongrass stalks white only
1 teaspoon Black Pepper
2 Cans of Light Coconut Milk
1/2 liter Chicken Stock (you can use a bit more if you want it more like a broth)
1 1/2 tablespoons Fish Sauce
2 tablespoons Sugar (you can also use honey or agave)
1-2 teaspoons Salt (add at end and taste)
1 Fillet of Salmon Skin on and cut into 5 cm strips
1 bunch Kale stems removed and shredded
1 bunch Swiss Chard stems removed and shredded
8 red potatoes quartered
1 handful toasted cashews for garnish
6 Kaffir lime leaves (4 for the paste and 2 for the sauce)
2 Vine Ripe Tomatoes chopped and added to pot just before serving
1.First make your paste by putting chillies, galangal, shallots, garlic cloves, small handful of cilantro, small handful of holy basil leaves, roasted cumin and coriander, fish paste, juice of 1 lime, black pepper and lemongrass into blender. You may need to add a little oil to this or water to allow it to blend. Once completely blended remove and leave to the side. You will not need all the paste you just made so the rest can be store for a week in an airtight container in the fridge or in your freezer for 2 months.
2.Take a 1/3 cup of the paste you just made and put into a large enough pan that you can poach 4 pieces of salmon filet. Heat pan add the paste and a little coconut milk and allow the paste to cook for a couple minutes before added the rest of the coconut milk. Once you add the remaining coconut milk then add the fish sauce, other 2 kaffir lime leaves and sugar allow the mixture to heat in the pan but you do not want it to come to a boil. You want it to be at the stage just before boil when small air pockets are released into the pan. Now add your fish and cook for 10-12 minutes or until just cooked. Remove salmon and wrap in tin foil to keep heat in. Leave to the side.
3.Turn the heat up in the pan and add the potatoes and stock. Simmer mixture until potatoes are just cooked - approx 10 minutes. Now add the kale and the Swiss Chard and cook until wilted. Now add tomatoes just before you are ready to serve. Add salt to taste.
4.Place a scoopful of the potato kale mixture into a low lying bowl and place a piece of salmon over the top. Then scoop the sauce over the whole thing. Add cashew nuts, chopped cilantro and holy basil leaves and a dash of lime juice. Enjoy!
Recipe 2:Coho Salmon with Sweet Potato Salad and Cinnamon Sauce
Ingredients
Servings 4
2 cups cold water
11/2 tbsps kosher salt
1 tbsp granulated sugar
1 oz salmon fillets (fresh, skinless coho, silver)
1 tbsp olive oil
2 sweet potatoes (large)
1 cup yellow onion (small-dice)
kosher salt
2 tbsps mayonnaise
1/2 tsp orange zest (finely grated)
ground black pepper (Freshly)
3 tbsps olive oil
1/4 cup shallots (finely chopped, from about 1 medium shallot)
2 tsps fresh leav oregano (finely chopped)
1 tsp ground cinnamon
juice (1 medium orange, about 1/4 cup)
2 tbsps red wine
kosher salt
ground black pepper (Freshly)
rocket leaves (or Fresh watercress)
Instructions
For the salmon:
1In a dish just large enough to hold the fillets in a single layer, mix together the brine: Combine the cold water, salt, and sugar and stir to dissolve. Add the salmon fillets, making sure they are submerged in the brine. Refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes.
2Meanwhile, heat the oven to 275°F and arrange a rack in the middle.
3Remove the fish from the brine and pat dry with paper towels. Brush all over with the olive oil and place in a single layer in a baking dish.
4Bake until just cooked through, about 20 to 25 minutes.
For the salad:
1Meanwhile, cut the sweet potatoes (do not peel them) into 3/4-inch dice. Place them in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Add the onion, season with a few generous pinches of salt, and stir to combine. Bring to a boil over high heat and gently boil until the sweet potatoes can be easily pierced with the tip of a knife, about 10 minutes total. Drain the sweet potatoes and onions in a colander and let cool slightly.
2Transfer the sweet potatoes and onions to a medium bowl, add the mayonnaise and orange zest, season with salt and pepper, and gently toss to coat, being careful not to break up the sweet potatoes. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper as needed.
For the sauce:
1Heat the olive oil in a small frying pan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the shallots and cook until just softened, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the oregano and cinnamon, stir to combine, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
2Add the orange juice and red wine and cook until the alcohol smell has cooked off and the sauce has been reduced by about half. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
To serve:
1Divide the warm sweet potato salad among 4 serving plates and place a salmon fillet on top. Spoon the sauce over the salmon and garnish with a few sprigs of watercress or arugula.
