COLD THAI SALMON



Cold Thai Salmon image

Quote: "An Asian dish to spice up your potluck!" I am half-Asian and always looking to surprise my friends at potlucks with all kinds of exotic Pan-Asian treats. I have personally found that many of them are not that hard to make ¿ it's just finding the right ingredients. This latest dish was born out of a need to eat healthy while being satisfied and became a staple meal while I was performing in Boca Raton, Fla., last December. It also allowed me to stay trim for my form-fitting gown! The fish can be served hot or cold - I prefer it cold for the warm months - and the leftovers make a nice salmon salad (just add a little of that naughty mayo).

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 bunch cilantro
1 to 1 1/2 pounds fresh salmon fillets
1/8 teaspoon salt (optional as the fish sauce is quite salty)
1/8 teaspoon Asian white pepper (you can substitute black pepper if you can't find it)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (peanut oil can be substituted as well, but I like the rich flavor of the non-traditional olive oil)
2 tablespoons green curry paste
4 cloves garlic
1 shallot
2 kaffir lime leaves
1 lime
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1/4 cup white wine (the drier the better, I am not married to any particular vintage or variety)
1/4 cup chicken or fish stock (you can substitute a dreaded chicken or fish bouillon cube if you're in a pinch)
Cooked jasmine rice, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place the bunch of cilantro in a bowl and let it soak for a few minutes to remove the dirt.
  • Put each salmon fillet in a parchment paper pouch, flesh side up. Season the fish with salt and pepper. Pour the olive oil over the fish, then smear the green curry paste on top of the salmon.
  • Dice the garlic and shallots and sprinkle them on top, then place the lime leaves on top, as well.
  • Cut the lime in 1/2 and squeeze the lime juice over the fish.
  • Finally add the fish sauce, wine and chicken stock.
  • Drain the bowl of cilantro leaves and pat them dry with a paper towel. (You can wrap them in a fresh paper towel, place them in a baggie and put them in the refrigerator. The leaves will stay fresh longer that way.) Garnish the top with some chopped cilantro leaves.
  • Close up the pouches and place on a baking sheet. Bake 20 to 30 minutes. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour and serve with fresh cilantro sprigs.
  • Jasmine rice can also accompany the dish if you are eating it hot.

Steps:

  • To make the rice, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Wash the rice in a colander under cold running water for 1 minute, then drain well and set aside for 10 minutes.
  • In a small ovenproof saucepan, combine the rice, butter, and water.

  • Set aside and keep warm.
  • To start the salad, combine the cabbage, cucumber, cilantro, and mint in a medium bowl, and toss well.
  • Cover and refrigerate.
  • To make the sauce, in a medium saucepan over a medium heat, heat the peanut oil and saute the garlic and ginger until the garlic is lightly browned.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and add the coriander seeds, curry powder, curry paste, paprika, and cumin.
  • Decrease the heat to low and saute for abou t 2 minutes to release the oils and flavors; be careful not to burn the mixture.
  • Stir in the coconut milk, tomato puree, soy sauce, and brown sugar.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Choose the right salmon: Look for a salmon fillet that is firm and has a bright pink or orange color. Avoid any fish that looks dull or has brown spots.
  • Use a good quality marinade: The marinade is what will give your salmon its flavor, so it's important to use a good quality one. This recipe uses a simple marinade made with soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger, but you can also use a store-bought marinade if you prefer.
  • Cook the salmon over indirect heat: This will help to prevent the fish from overcooking and drying out. If you're using a grill, place the salmon on the side of the grill that is not directly over the heat. If you're using an oven, cook the salmon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Cook the salmon until it is cooked through: The best way to tell if the salmon is cooked through is to insert a fork into the thickest part of the fish. If the fork comes out easily, the salmon is cooked. If the fork meets resistance, the salmon needs to cook for a few minutes longer.

Conclusion:

Thai barbecued salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout or a weeknight meal. The marinade gives the salmon a sweet and savory flavor, and the fish cooks up moist and flaky. Serve the salmon with your favorite sides, such as rice, vegetables, or salad.
