Steps:
- Put the salmon in a bowl, pour over the lime juice and leave the salmon to 'cure' for 5 mins. Meanwhile, mix all the spices together with the sugar. Lift the salmon out of the lime juice and roll in the spices so it's completely coated.
- Heat grill to high. Grease a baking tray, then sit the salmon, flesh-side up, on the tray. Grill for 5 mins, until the salmon is cooked through and the edges are starting to blacken. While the salmon is cooking, gently mix all the salsa ingredients together with the roughly chopped coriander. When the fish is cooked, serve with the salsa, some rice and the coriander sprigs.

SPICY SALMON MARINADE
This white wine, rosemary, and garlic marinade is given a kick with crushed red pepper and hot sauce. As written, the heat level is mild, but adjust to your tastes by adding more hot sauce or a spicier hot sauce. I like to use a Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio, and serve the rest of the bottle chilled with dinner. This salmon tastes best when cooked on an outdoor grill.

Steps:
- Mix first 4 ingredients in large bowl. Add lamb and toss to coat. Heat vegetable oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until tender and golden, about 10 minutes. Add lamb and sprinkle with salt. Sauté until brown, about 5 minutes. Add minced ginger and stir 1 minute. Add 1 cup water and bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until lamb is tender, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour.
- Add apricots to pot and simmer uncovered until liquid is slightly thickened and reduced, about 10 minutes. Stir in vinegar and sugar. Season to taste with salt. Divide stew among 4 bowls.
Tips:
- For a crispy skin, ensure that the salmon fillet is patted dry before cooking.
- Use a non-stick skillet or a well-seasoned cast iron skillet to prevent the salmon from sticking.
- Start by searing the salmon skin-side down until it becomes crispy and golden brown. This will help to keep the flesh of the salmon moist and tender.
- Once the skin is crispy, flip the salmon and continue cooking until it is cooked through. The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the fillet.
- To test if the salmon is cooked through, insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet. If it flakes easily, the salmon is cooked.
- Serve the salmon immediately with your favorite sides.
Conclusion:
This spicy cardamom salmon is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the spicy cardamom sauce is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or quinoa.
