Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients
  • 1 lb salmon fillets skin removed and cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger grated
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 can 14 oz coconut milk
  • 1 cup vegetable or fish broth
  • 2 cups spinach or kale chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish optional
  • Cooked rice or naan for serving

Instructions
 

  • Cooking Instructions
  • In a large skillet or saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
  • Add the curry powder and turmeric powder to the skillet, stirring well to coat the onions. Cook for another minute to release the spices' flavors.
  • Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable or fish broth, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer. Allow it to cook for about 5 minutes, letting the flavors meld together.
  • Carefully add the salmon pieces to the curry sauce. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  • Stir in the chopped spinach or kale and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the greens are wilted. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the salmon curry hot over cooked rice or with naan, garnished with fresh cilantro if desired.
  • Extra Tips
  • For added depth of flavor, consider marinating the salmon in a mixture of lemon juice, garlic, and a pinch of salt for about 30 minutes before cooking.
  • You can also customize the dish by adding other vegetables, such as bell peppers or peas, to enhance the nutritional profile.
  • Finally, adjust the level of spiciness by incorporating fresh chili peppers or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the curry. Enjoy your homemade salmon curry!
