I make this salmon curry a couple times/month, and since stay-at-home, more like a couple times/week. It’s fairly simple to make and my go-to since I typically have the ingredients on hand. Whip this up, hug yourself and curl into a tight ball after.

If you can, opt for salmon belly when making this dish.The fattiness from the belly gives a buttery mouthfeel you can thank me for later.

If you’re not in a hurry, let the dish sit for 20-30 mins after cooking. This allows the flavors to deepen, yielding a richer curry.
