Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Bring a medium saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
  • Pull out a medium frying pan, a medium bowl, a measuring jug, a sieve & a grater

Get started

  • Heat the medium frying pan with 1/2 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the diced salmon and cook for 4 mins, stirring once. Season with salt and pepper
  • Meanwhile, add the quinoa to the saucepan and boil for 13-14 mins, until cooked, then drain

Simmer the curry

  • Halve the tomatoes
  • Add the tomatoes, rogan josh sauce, creamed coconut and 100ml water (50ml for 1 person) to the salmon pan and stir gently to dissolve. Simmer for 10 mins, until the salmon is cooked through

Prep the salad

  • Coarsely grate the carrot (peel optional). Roughly chop the coriander. Halve the lime
  • In the medium bowl, combine the carrot with half the nigella seeds, half the coriander, the juice from half the lime and a pinch of salt

Final bits & plate up

  • Check your fish is cooked through; it should be steaming hot, opaque and separate easily with a fork
  • Rinse the spinach, then stir into the curry in the final 1 min and cook until wilted. Add a squeeze of lime and season to taste with salt and pepper
  • Share the salmon curry between bowls, with the quinoa and carrot salad alongside. Sprinkle with the remaining nigella seeds and coriander to finish
