Report
Salmon Coconut Curry is an easy weeknight dinner bowl that's on the table in less than 30 minutes. We're talking big juicy chunks of salmon and fresh spinach in a light Thai inspired red curry sauce ~ popped with the holy trinity of lime, cilantro and fresh ginger.

Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 medium onion, peeled, halved, and sliced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 Tbsp minced fresh ginger (more to taste)
- 1 Tbsp Thai red curry paste
- 1/2 tsp powdered turmeric
- 1 Serrano pepper, thinly sliced into rounds
- 15 ounce can full fat coconut milk
- fresh lime juice, to taste
- sea salt to taste
- 1 lb salmon fillet, cut into large chunks (or you can do smaller chunks if you prefer)
- 3 handfuls of fresh clean spinach leaves
garnish
- lots of fresh cilantro
- Lime wedges
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large pan and saute the onion, garlic, and ginger for about 5 minutes, until softened but not browned.
- Add the curry paste, turmeric, and hot peppers to the pan and stir to combine. Continue sauteeing for a few more minutes, stirring almost constantly.
- Add the coconut milk and a tablespoon of lime juice (you can add more to taste.) Bring the mixture up to a bubble. Add salt to taste.
- Add the chunks of salmon and let the pot gently simmer, covered, for 5 minutes, just until the salmon is cooked, it doesn't take long. Stir to cover the fish with the sauce. Add the spinach and cook just until it wilts.
- Check the seasoning again, and serve the curry over hot rice
Notes
- Make ahead instructions:
- The sauce can be made a day in advance. Don't add the fresh cilantro until ready to serve.
