Farmers Market information

Thanks to my good friend Cheron, for this great recipe which was originally from “The Sunset Cookbook”. We have been sharing our recipes for many years and this Thai Salmon Stew with Roasted Vegetables recipe has been a huge crowd pleaser every time I make it. I have adapted it for the Farmers Market Seasonal Recipe series to by incorporating all of the fresh seasonal vegetables available.

Two parts to this recipe: The Roasted Vegetables and the Salmon Stew

The Roasted Vegetables which are coated with olive oil, garlic, chili powder and smoked paprika and are delicious on their own or as a side dish.

Next, you have the Thai Salmon Stew which is super quick and easy. Although each could be eaten separately, when put together it is an unreal flavor combination!

Fortunately, the roasted vegetables can be prepared up to 2 days ahead and refrigerated. Basically, the salmon stew portion of the recipe comes together in about 10 minutes which makes this a great weeknight meal if you plan ahead.

Yes, the list of ingredients seems vast, but I hope you are slowly building up your pantry so you will have most of the condiments and spices on hand. I always have 4-5 cans of coconut milk as well as the Thai Red Curry Paste and Fish Sauce. In addition, if you are cooking on a regular basis, it is important to always have white or yellow onions and garlic which are used in so many of my recipes.

I love the way my house smells about 15 minutes after placing these vegetables in the oven, from the mixture of garlic, chili powder and paprika.

I served the Thai Salmon Stew with Roasted Vegetables over jasmine rice but it would be equally delicious served with barley or brown rice.
