Crispy Curried Salmon with Roasted Kabocha and Asparagus

Salmon stays extra juicy when baked with a protective mayonnaise layer. Here, the mayonnaise doubles as a vehicle for flavor. You can use any curry paste you like, just keep in mind that the yellow curry is less spicy than other varieties so you may want to add significantly less if using a red or green curry. You can also swap the curry for sriracha, harissa, or gochujang. The whole dish is topped with pork rind bread crumbs for a nice crunchy texture and served with a sweet and savory squash brightened with a bit of vinegar and enriched with coconut aminos or soy sauce. The creaminess of the kabocha pairs well with the tender crisp asparagus for a relatively quickly roasted side dish.Ā

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425ĀŗF and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Toss the kabocha with a tablespoon of oil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Roast at 425ĀŗF for 20 minutes. Add the asparagus and roast for another 10 minutes. Test the squash to ensure it is soft before removing the vegetables from the oven. Combine the vinegar, soy, and monk fruit in a bowl. Remove vegetable from oven and toss with vinegar and soy mixture, set aside.
  • Season the salmon with salt and pepper, to taste. Mix the mayonnaise with curry paste and spread over tops of the salmon. Finally, press the pork panko on top of the mayonnaise mixture. Roast at 425ĀŗF for 10-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes when tested with a fork.
  • Serve fish along with the veggies, garnish with sliced green onion.
