Salmon Curry

Got some salmon for a similar deal as the cod - cheap, but of cook-asap-or-else freshness.

I bought quite a lot too, almost half kilo. Best way to cook in bulk? curry loh..

A straight-forward dish - brahims fish curry mix, salmon, tomatoes, brinjals. Wanted to add some Lady's fingers too, but couldn't find.

As a side note, why all the 'curry'able veges all got so many names one???
* brinjal = eggplant = Aubergine = Garden Egg = Mad apple = berenjena = egg apple = patlican = melongene = melanzane = Guinea squash
* Lady's Finger = Okra = gumbo

Good thing about curry, it keeps long, and tastes better after a few days. In too many words than necessary, you end up with curry that has more fish taste, and fish that has more curry taste.

Been surviving on this dish for a couple of days now.

Great when eaten with just plain rice.

Even better when eaten with egg fried rice, and some vege side dishes.

The flat round pieces at the far end of the plate is deep fried cucumber a.k.a zuchini. Picked that recipe up from a friend. Amazingly simple. Just slice up some cucumbers, wipe them dry, coat with plain flour, and deep fry.

Supposedly, that method works for brinjals too, but only the asian variety. The american or italians ones are sponge-like and can cannot be deep fried straight or it will soak up all the oil like, well, a sponge.

The spongy versions need special treatment before cooking, something I learnt from one of the older Alton Brown's Good Eats episodes.

Will include on my future posts, if I don't screw it up. ;)
