SALMON WITH YOGURT-CURRY SAUCE
With its rich flesh, salmon is so strongly flavored that you can pair it with just about anything. Here I cook it with a yogurt sauce that contains just chopped cucumber and spices. If you use farmed salmon and a nonstick skillet, you won't even need to add any fat. That's because farmed salmon is so high in fat (fattier than wild salmon, and it's the beneficial omega-3 type, too) that it's difficult to overcook. This is not to say you can put it on the stove and walk away, but that precision is a goal rather than a necessity. Even if you like your fish cooked through, the result will be a piece of meat that still has a fair amount of moisture in it.

Steps:
- If yogurt is very thin, put it in a cheesecloth-lined strainer over a bowl. Cut cucumber in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds. Chop flesh, sprinkle it with salt and put in a strainer over a bowl.
- If making spice mix (see note), combine all spices in a skillet and toast over medium heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Grind to a coarse powder in a spice mill.
- Put a skillet over medium heat; if it is other than nonstick, add oil. Season fish with salt and pepper and add it to pan; raise heat to medium high. Combine cucumber with yogurt and one tablespoon of spice mix in a bowl; taste and adjust seasoning.
- After salmon has cooked for 4 minutes, turn it and cook on other side another 2 to 5 minutes. Serve, browned side up, with sauce and lime on the side.

Tips:
- Select high-quality salmon: Opt for fresh or frozen salmon fillets that are firm to the touch and have a vibrant color. Avoid fillets with any signs of bruising or discoloration.
- Marinate the salmon: Marinating the salmon in a mixture of yogurt, lemon juice, and spices helps infuse flavor and keep it moist during cooking.
- Use a non-stick skillet: A non-stick skillet prevents the salmon from sticking and makes it easier to flip.
- Cook the salmon over medium heat: Cooking the salmon over medium heat ensures that it cooks evenly without burning the outside.
- Flake the salmon: Once the salmon is cooked, use a fork to gently flake it into bite-sized pieces.
- Make the yogurt curry sauce: Combine yogurt, curry powder, cumin, coriander, ginger, garlic, and salt in a bowl and whisk until smooth.
- Serve the salmon with the yogurt curry sauce: Pour the yogurt curry sauce over the flaked salmon and serve immediately.
