CRISPY-SKIN SALMON WITH CURRIED YOGURT SAUCE



Crispy-Skin Salmon with Curried Yogurt Sauce image

Nailing perfectly crispy skin on salmon is easier than you think. The secret is prepping the fish before cooking it. Scraping the residual moisture will guarantee a crisp skin. You can also scrape it a few hours or days before cooking.

Time 15m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Two 6-ounce salmon fillets, skin on, scales and pin bones removed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup whole-milk Greek yogurt
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Grated zest of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • For the salmon: Pat the fillets dry with paper towels. With the sharp edge of a knife, scrape the skin back and forth the length of a fillet over and over with light pressure. You will see moisture build up on your knife edge; wipe it away. Continue for about 1 minute, until there's almost nothing to wipe away. Cut a few 2- to 3-inch slits across the middle of the salmon skin. Repeat with the remaining fillet.
  • Season the salmon with salt and pepper on both sides. Drizzle with the oil and set aside until ready to cook.
  • For the yogurt sauce: Combine the yogurt, cilantro, lemon zest and juice, oil, garlic, garam masala and curry powder in a small bowl. Mix with a fork until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
  • Heat a 9- to 11-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes. There is no need to oil the pan, because you oiled the fish. Add the fillets skin-side down, laying them away from you. Cook for about 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Shake the pan until the salmon releases from the bottom of the pan by itself.
  • Carefully turn the salmon over and reduce the heat to medium-low so the flesh side cooks more slowly. Cook until a thin-bladed knife inserted into the flesh meets with just a little resistance or an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a fillet registers 125 degrees F, 2 to 3 minutes (thinner pieces will be done quicker than the thicker ones).
  • Serve the fillets topped with some of the yogurt sauce.

GRILLED SALMON WITH CURRY SAUCE



Grilled Salmon With Curry Sauce image

With good fresh salmon, less is always more. But sometimes I like to kick it up a notch with some Indian spices. This curry sauce can be made ahead and reheated while your salmon (or whatever type of fish you have) grillls. You can serve with steamed rice, but to be more carb friendly, sometimes I serve with cauliflower puree. In reviewing the nutritional content listed here, I don't agree with the carbohydrate content that has been calculated. The can of coconut milk has 2 grams of carbs per serving listed. So am stymied with how this system came up with over 50 grams per serving. Now if you include a few glasses of rose wine with this, maybe your carb content will be higher, but still not over 50 grams.

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon butter
3 onions, sliced into half-moons
2 tablespoons tamarind paste
2 dried red chilies
1/4 cup gingerroot, cut into matchsticks
2 teaspoons turmeric, divided
1 teaspoon cumin powder
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can coconut milk
1 orange, juice of
2 lbs salmon fillets
salt
cilantro leaf (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Cover dried chilies with some boiling water and allow to stand until softened, usually about 15 minutes. Handling carefully, so the chilies do not burn your hands, mince with scissors. If you are using fresh chilies, simply slice into rings.
  • Dissolve tamarind paste in about a cup of water.
  • Heat butter in a large skillet, then add onions. Let them caramelize slightly, then stir in 1 teaspoon each of turmeric and cumin powder. After a few minutes add dissolved tamarind paste, minced chilies, ginger, coconut milk and salt to taste. Since this will be rather thick, add some water. Then simmer to allow all these spices and flavors to marry. To add a little brightness, add the juice of an orange. Lime or lemon might be better. The sauce can be made ahead and reheated before grilling your fish. **The heat of this sauce is tempered by the flavor of the salmon. It can also be tempered with some raita or chutney on the side, or even just plain yogurt. OR instead of using 2 chilies, just use one.**.
  • Sprinkle salmon with salt, a teaspoon of turmeric and a light dusting of cumin powder.
  • Grill salmon over a hot fire, being careful not to overcook. Fresh salmon is far better when slightly rare, JMHO. I start with grilling the fleshy side down first. After 3-4 minutes, turn carefully so that skin side is down and grill another 3-4 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fillet. As you remove from the grill, the skin, which I don't find appetizing, will stick to the grill, easily skinning your fresh grilled fillet.
  • Serve with the curry sauce and garnish with cilantro. Wash down with a chilled rose wine.

Tips:

  • Use fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs and spices add a lot of flavor to this dish, so don't skimp on them. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to reduce the amount you use by about half.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it carefully. The best way to tell when salmon is done is to check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer. The salmon is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the salmon with your favorite sides: This salmon dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, quinoa, roasted vegetables, or a salad. You can also add a dollop of yogurt or sour cream to the top of the salmon before serving.

Conclusion:

This salmon with yogurt curry sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. The salmon is cooked in a creamy yogurt curry sauce that's full of flavor. The dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, quinoa, roasted vegetables, or a salad. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy salmon recipe, give this one a try.
