- 1 x 400ml can coconut milk
- 3 tbsp Thai red curry paste check for additives
- 2 tbsp fish sauce
- 1 tbsp coconut sugar

Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180C / 350F / Gas Mark 4. Arrange the salmon fillets in a roasting dish, skin side down.
- Prepare the Curry Sauce: In a non-stick saucepan, mix together the curry paste with the chillies and 1 tbsp of coconut milk (skimmed from the top so it is at its thickest). Heat gently until it starts to bubble and become fragrant. Add the remaining coconut milk and stir well.
- Cook the Salmon: When the sauce starts to boil, pour it evenly over the salmon fillets. Drizzle over the fish sauce and sprinkle with the coconut sugar. Cover the dish with foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 15 minutes.
- Serve: Remove the dish from the oven and serve the salmon garnished with some fresh basil or coriander.
