Succulent baked salmon drenched in a fragrant creamy roasted pepper sauce makes this the ultimate dinner tray bake.
One tray wonder
Other than the sauce, which you need to blend. This dish needs one tray. You just throw everything into a tray and let the magic happen.
This means minimal washing up and as it is Ramadan, less washing up is vital! Cleaning a hurricane of plates is not the one after a long day of fasting. The one thing I dread during Ramadan is kitchen cleaning!
But with this dish, I just place this beauty in it’s tray in the middle of the dining table and everyone digs in.
Roasted red pepper and coconut sauce
This sauce is on RINSE AND REPEAT at my house. We love and can’t get enough of it. It transforms any dish into the brightest creamiest dish. It is addictive and extremely morish. You have been warned!
If you are not a fav of coconut milk, trust me when I say the after taste is more roasted red pepper than coconut. BUT if you really are not a coconut milk fan then swap with cream or vegan cream. I have tried both, and they are equally delicious!
Serve with
I like to serve this with rice, bulgar wheat, quinoa or mash. Works beautiful as salmon pasta too, just flake the salmon and mix the cooked pasta into the beautiful creamy sauce. Absolutly DIVINE!
So what are you waiting for! This one tray wonder is calling you to make it tonight. Any fish would work well too. So don’t be discouraged if you do not have any salmon.
We have tried this with chicken and my word it was SO good. I have a IG reel tutorial on that on my instagram page.
