Publix has wild sockeye salmon on sale this week. Sure would like to make this sauce if I can find lemongrass.

SEARED SALMON WITH COCONUT THAI CURRY SAUCE (Epicurean Mom)

1 tablespoon lemongrass, finely minced

1/2 teaspoon garlic, chopped

1 1/2 tablespoons butter

1 can coconut milk, about 14 ounces (I used *lite* Thai kitchen)

1 teaspoon red curry paste

1 1/2 teaspoons honey

1 1/2 teaspoons lemon, juiced

1/2 teaspoon salt

Pinch of pepper

1 teaspoon chives, minced

2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil

3-6oz salmon fillets

1 1/2 cups cooked quinoa or basmati rice

Melt butter in a large saute pan over medium-medium/low heat. Add lemongrass and garlic, sauteing until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the coconut milk and red curry paste, stir until completely dissolved. Add honey, lemon, salt and pepper. Bring to a slow boil, turn down heat and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the chives, cover and set aside.

Preheat 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil in a large heavy bottomed cast iron skillet or saute pan over medium heat, for 2 minutes. Sprinkle both sides of salmon fillets with salt and pepper, add to heated pan. Turn heat to medium-high heat and cook for 3 minutes. Flip fillets and cook for 5 minutes, until browning, or flakes easily with a fork (cooking time depends on fillet thickness.)

Spoon 1/3 quinoa/rice onto an individual plate. Place one salmon fillet on top and spoon 1/3 of coconut thai sauce over salmon. Repeat with remaining fillets.

Salmon Croquettes
1 can red salmon *I remove the bones
10 soda crackers crushed
2 eggs
Crush crackers - pour salmon and liquid into bowl-add eggs and crackers-combine
Shape into patties, roll in cornmeal-refrigerate until ready to use-roll in cornmeal again and fry until good and brown on both sides. You add about an inch or so of oil to the pan, brown on one side then turn and brown on the other. These are not deep fried.

I make a cheese sauce to serve over mine.

This is something along the lines of your recipe, Patti!

Thai Style Halibut with Coconut Curry Broth
Ellie Krieger

Ingredients

2 teaspoons vegetable oil
4 shallots, finely chopped (about 3/4 cup)
2 1/2 teaspoons red curry paste, or 2 teaspoons curry powder
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup light coconut milk
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus 1/4 teaspoon, plus more for seasoning
4 (6-ounce) pieces halibut fillet, skin removed
Steamed spinach
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
2 scallions, green part only, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Freshly ground black pepper
2 cups cooked brown rice, for serving

Directions

Steam or microwave 5 cups of washed baby spinach for 2 minutes

In a large saute pan, heat the oil over moderate heat. Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the curry paste and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the chicken broth, coconut milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt and simmer until reduced to 2 cups, about 5 minutes.

Season the halibut with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Arrange the fish in the pan and gently shake the pan so the fish is coated with the sauce. Cover and cook until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 7 minutes.

Arrange a pile of steamed spinach in the bottom of 4 soup plates. Top with the fish fillets. Stir the cilantro, scallions, and lime juice into the sauce and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Ladle the sauce over the fish and serve with rice.

Berry Cheesecake Trifle 2 (8-ounce) packages low fat cream cheese 1 cup powdered sugar 1 cup low fat sour cream 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 teaspoon almond extract 1 (12-ounce) container frozen low-fat whipped topping, thawed 1 angel food cake, torn into bite sized pieces 1 1/2 quarts fresh strawberries, sliced 1 1/2 quarts fresh blueberries 3 tablespoons granulated sugar In large bowl, cream together cream cheese and powdered sugar; add sour cream, vanilla, and almond extract. Set aside. Fold whipped topping into cream cheese mixture. Add cake pieces and fold lightly, set aside. Combine strawberries and sugar. Layer in large glass bowl starting with strawberries, then cake pieces, then blueberries. Continue layering until finished, 3 or 4 layers is good (depends on your bowl). Finish with berries on top and garnish with additional whipped topping if you want. Cover and chill well. Garnish with additional strawberries and blueberries just before serving, if desired. Makes 24 servings. Note: I prefer using low fat cream cheese, sour cream, and whipped topping instead of fat-free. I much prefer the taste, but if you like, fat free may be used. Or you may use half of each. I prefer to bake the angel food cake (instead of buying one) because it is much softer and lighter. I usually use a mix. This trifle may be made with all strawberries, all blueberries, and it is good with fresh peaches. A peaches and blueberry mixture is good too. Sue

Today I've made a few things.. Mini Vanilla Wafers..(double batch today) Mini Vanilla Wafer Cookies 1/2 cup butter, softened 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 cup brown sugar 1 large egg 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 1/3 cup all purpose flour 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp baking powder Preheat oven to 325F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugars until light. Beat in egg and vanilla extract. Sift flour, salt and baking powder over the butter mixture and stir to combine. Scrap dough into a pastry bag fitted with a plain piping tip. Pipe the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, making each cookie the size of a large chocolate chip. Cookies will spread, but only a little space is needed between cookies. Bake at 325 F for 10 to 15 minutes, until cookies are a light golden brown. Baking time will vary depending on the exact size of your cookies. Mine were a bit tall, but slightly smaller than a dime. They spread slightly to about dime-size. Cool on baking sheets. Store in an airtight container. Baking Bites I let the last batch darken and dry out a bit more for "nanner pudding".. Just finished the Vanilla Bean Pudding Vanilla Pudding~Betty Crocker 1/3 c sugar 2 T cornstarch pinch of salt 2 c milk 2 egg yolks 2 t vanilla 2 T of butter (optional) Inside of half a vanilla bean(My addition when doing vanilla) In a medium sauce pan mix cornstarch, salt and sugar, whisk in milk...bring to a boil on medium..boil 1 minute...in the measuring cup from the milk gently whisk 2 egg yolks..when minute is up..pour about 1/3 of the milk mixture and whisk in the measuring cup with yolks...add all of that to the pan and whisk..boiling 1 more minute..stir in vanilla and butter. Pour into a dish and cover the surface with plastic wrap as to not make puddin skin..
