Ingredients
  

4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)

1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk

2 tablespoons red curry paste

1 tablespoon fish sauce

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 tablespoon lime juice

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 onion, finely chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 inch ginger, grated

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 cup snow peas or green beans

1 cup fresh spinach

Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Cooked jasmine rice or quinoa, for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients. Chop the onion, bell pepper, and prepare the garlic and ginger for easy access.

    Sauté Aromatics: In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent (about 3-4 minutes). Then add the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

      Add Curry Paste: Stir in the red curry paste, mixing well with the onion mixture. Cook for another 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

        Combine Coconut Milk: Pour in the coconut milk, fish sauce, brown sugar, and lime juice. Stir until the curry paste is fully dissolved, and let it simmer for about 5 minutes.

          Cook Bell Pepper and Vegetables: Add the sliced red bell pepper and snow peas or green beans to the skillet. Stir and simmer for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are heated through but still crisp.

            Add Salmon: Gently place the salmon fillets into the curry sauce. Cover the skillet and simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and easily flakes with a fork.

              Stir in Spinach: Just before serving, fold in the fresh spinach and let it wilt in the heat of the curry.

                Serve: Spoon the creamy salmon coconut curry over a bed of jasmine rice or quinoa and garnish with fresh cilantro.
