Salmon

INGREDIENTS

  • Bluehouse Salmon
  • 1 thumb size Ginger, sliced
  • 5-10 cloves Garlic
  • Olive oil to fill pan

METHOD

  1. Fill pan with olive oil just enough to place salmon in that it will cover the salmon.

Fresh Coconut Curry

INGREDIENTS

  1. Crack open coconuts. Keep liquid and remove flesh. Blend together (you may have to add water) and strain through a cheese cloth. (You can dehydrate pulp or use another time. I saved some of the flesh for garnish).
  2. Whisk with tandoori powder and place in a siphon and charge or place into a blender with the powder and blend until powder is incorporated.
  3. Heat gently in a pot or serve as is.
