Salmon With Coriander Dahl Recipes

PEPPER- AND CORIANDER-COATED SALMON FILLETS

Steps:

• Mix parsley and orange peel in small bowl. Mix coriander, brown sugar and black pepper in medium bowl. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover separately. Chill parsley mixture. Store spice mixture at room temperature.)
• Sprinkle salmon with salt. Coat salmon on all sides with spice mixture. Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter and 1/2 tablespoon oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 3 salmon fillets. Cook fish until crust is golden and center is just opaque, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer fish to platter. Tent with foil to keep warm. Wipe skillet. Repeat with remaining butter, oil and salmon. Spoon parsley mixture atop salmon and serve.

CORIANDER SALMON

Steps:

• In a small dish, combine the salt, pepper and coriander. Sprinkle over salmon. In a nonstick skillet, cook salmon in oil over medium heat for 4 minutes on each side. Add the garlic, lime juice and hot pepper sauce. Reduce heat; cover and cook 3-4 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

SALMON MARINATED IN GINGER AND CORIANDER

Steps:

• Slice salmon thinly ( 1/4 inch or less) widthwise, leaving strips about 2 inches long. Place in a mixing bowl.
• Add lime juice, onion, vinegar, oil, coriander, ginger, hot pepper, salt and pepper. Stir gently, and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours. Taste for seasoning before serving (it may need more salt; if so, blend it in thoroughly).
• Line small serving plates with lettuce of your choice, and place a serving of salmon over the lettuce.

FOUR-SPICE SALMON

Steps:

• Season fillets on both sides with salt and pepper. If necessary, combine spices and grind them to a coarse powder in a coffee or spice grinder. Press some of the mixture onto the top of each fillet.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for 2 or 3 minutes. Add the oil or butter and, when it shimmers, place the fillets, coated side down, in the pan. Cook about 2 to 3 minutes, or until the spice mixture forms a nicely browned crust.
• Turn the fillets and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until the salmon just slightly resists when pierced with a thin-bladed knife.
