Flaky Salmon, fragrant jasmine rice and colorful blanched vegetables in a soupy Thai yellow curry broth are my idea of a cozy dinner.This bowl has balanced flavors and is really hearty. After Indian cuisine, my next favorite has to be Thai cuisine. What’s not to love! What I am drawn to the most is how the spices and herbs used in both cuisines. They bear resemblance to each other but the flavor profile of dishes is so unique. No points for guessing that the myriad of Thai curries are my favorite! I love using seafood with fresh vegetables in the curries and this soupy yellow curry bowl is cooked often in our home. The moment I saw Bluehouse Salmon, I knew that the fresh fish would be so amazing in this week’s yellow curry. Bluehouse salmon are land raised in Florida practicing sustanability. Think of Bluehouse like a greenhouse. In their land based Bluehouses, salmon farming is done observing ethical practices, as a result, we can feast while our oceans thrive. Their salmon is always fresh, never frozen, antibiotics & hormone free and has a super taste. I only have good things to say about this salmon. Being a seafood lover to the core, I have tasted numerous kinds of salmon and trust me I can differentiate. The taste of this fish is clean and rich. You really feel like eating something that is good for your body and mind (cue all the omega acids).After cooking, the salmon turned out to be firm yet buttery. It was nicely moist and flaky and not dry at all. With different kinds of colorful vegetables and steamed jasmine rice, this soupy bowl of superfood salmon goodness is satiating and delicious at the same time. Making Thai curry bases from scratch can be time consuming especially on weeknights. So I use store bought yellow curry paste when I am in a hurry but I pep it up using shallots, a fresh pounded paste of ginger, garlic and fresh turmeric. While the curry base simmers, I prepare the vegetables. The rice can also cook in the same time if you start them at the beginning of cooking. If you are able to plan your workflow a bit, and with little help from the store, this amazing meal can be prepared in 30 to 40 minutes. You can easily switch up the protein. Add chicken, just the vegetables or tofu. This is a very adaptable recipe to suit your liking.
