Ingredients

4 x 120g pin boned skin on salmon fillets

In a medium pan heat a little oil and then season your salmon (skin side) with salt and pepper, or herbamare. Cook for 2-3 minutes each side then take out and set aside.

Mild Indian spiced mince, with green beans, capsicum and peas

Serves 4

This is just a mildly spice Indian dish, as well as no chilli, you could definitely add ½ -1 chilli into the paste and just double the spice component if you like more pungent flavors. Good dish for children who do not always like lots of spices.

Ingredients

500g lamb mince, or other mince

1 capsicum, 2 cm dice

2 cups of frozen peas

400g green beans, top and tailed

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 can(400g)of tomatoes, you could also use 1 (270ml) can coconut milk

Paste

½  brown onion

5 cloves garlic

1 tbsp ginger

2 tsp ground turmeric

1 tsp garem masala

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp ground coriander

Method for paste

Put paste ingredients in a food processor and blitz, add 1 tbsp water at a time (you can use coconut oil) till it makes a nice thick paste, season with salt. If you do not ave a food processor you can just finely dice your onion, ginger and garlic and add your spices to just add to your pot.

Method for mince

 

In a large pot add 1 tbsp coconut oil and put in your paste (or separate paste ingredients) and cook for 1 minute then add your mince and brown-3-4 minutes. Then add your tomatoes/coconut milk and simmer for 7 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated.

Put your beans on to steam (5 minutes to cook approx.) then add your peas, capsicum and lemon juice to your mince and simmer another 5 minutes until your peas are cooked. You can serve this with your green beans and rice, yoghurt dressing, poppadums, naan bread etc..no yoghurt for dairy free and no rice for grain free, rice is ok for gluten free though.
