Tandoori Salmon with Zucchini Boats

  • 4 salmon fillets, 180g each
  • 4 tsp tandoori curry paste or 2 tsp mild Indian curry paste
  • 4 medium zucchini
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • pinches of salt, pepper and cumin
  • 1/2 cup plain yogourt or sour cream
  • 1 green onion, sliced
  • 2 Tbsp chopped fresh coriander

OIL grill and heat barbecue to medium-high. Smear tops of fish with tandoori paste. Cut zucchini in half lengthwise. Using a spoon, scrape out and discard seeds. Brush all over with oil and sprinkle with seasonings. In a bowl, stir yogourt with onion.

PLACE fish, skin-side down, on a grill. Then add zucchini, cut-side down. Close lid. Barbecue until a knife tip instered into centre of fillets comes out warm, 10 to 14 min. Don’t turn fish.

TURN zucchini after 5 min, and as soon as each piece is fork-tender, remove to a large platter.

REMOVE salmon by inserting a wide metal spatula between skin and flesh, leaving skin on grill. Place on platter with zucchini. Fill zucchini with yogourt mixture and sprinkle with coriander.
