Canned Salmon Curry
RECIPE BY TREVESHAN PATHER
Ingredients:
1 can Salmon – 213g
1 small onion sliced
2 cloves garlic sliced/crushed
1/4 hot pepper (optional)
1 scallion
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 tablespoon oil
dash of black pepper
a pinch of salt
Method:
Prep the onion, garlic, pepper and scallion. Then in a saucepan on medium/high heat, heat the oil. Add the sliced onion and garlic and cook for a couple minutes on medium heat. Allow to soften and release it’s natural oils.
Now add the slices of hot pepper and allow to cook for about a minute, then add the curry powder and stir well. Let that cook (stir) cook for about 2 minutes, then add about 5 tablespoons of water and stir to pick up all the curry that may be stuck to the bottom of the pot.
Turn down the heat to low and allow the curry paste to cook for about 3-5 minutes until all the liquid cooks off. The next step is to empty the can of salmon into the pot and break apart (add the liquid from the can as well). Try to keep it in flakes, so there’s some texture to the final outcome. Mix in the scallion and tomato and cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a gentle simmer (covered).
With the lid on, it will spring some of it’s own juices. Cook this for about 5 minutes or until it thickens a bit. Remember to stir a couple times, but try not to break-up the fish too much.
And voila! Delicious!
