I Need More Fish!!!

I rarely cook fish as I'm not good at preparing them. So usually I don't experiment on fish dishes much. And if I ever wanted to have fish especially salmon, I would rather visit those good restaurant to savour it whereby I'm sort of sure that they will do a good job. I mean how wrong can a grill fish turn out.... *lol* Oh ya, I just love grill salmon especially those thick, moist, succulent meat. *drooling* And also not forgetting raw salmon. Just love Japanese food....


Salmon on a bed of rice

Salmon is a pretty expensive fish. But it's considered a healthy fish as it contains high in protein and omega 3 fatty acids. I just don't understand how fats can be healthy. *scratching head* Anyway, I went to the market with my mom and saw this piece of salmon which looks beautifully fresh. I was just asking about the price of the fish as I was interested in preparing salmon for Doink. Mom bought the fish straight away for me before I could even consider about whether I want to cook it or not. So I guess I had no choice.


Yummy!

I was excited in preparing it. So many different recipes were running through my brain. I wanted to prepare so many different kinds of dishes on salmon : quiche, pies, salmon with cream, fried salmon, salmon pasta etc.... Then I realise I better not try to be so adventurous and just prepare a simple salmon dish in case I screw the whole dish up and waste such a beautiful piece of fish.


Time to eat

So decided to just simple pan fry the fish after seasoning it with salt and pepper. When it was nearly done, squeeze some lemon juice over to it. Tadah, the dish is ready to be served. *yummy*


Korean seaweed

I serve the fish with rice. Now you must be wondering what are the black stuff on the rice. Those are seaweeds. I bought a packet of Korean seaweed from Jusco which costs about RM7+. Just add into your rice for better flavour. However, you need to add some water to your rice to add more moisture to it as I find it taste better if your rice is a little bit moist.


Love it so dearly

Now, this is a delicious full course meal. I think Doink and I really enjoy this dish a lot. Hmm... I guess cooking fish ain't that tough afterall. In fact it's pretty simple. Ok, next I'm going to try cooking some other type of flavour on the fish. Haha... But then I'm in dilemma whether I should cook the fish with lots of flavouring and taste or just a simple one whereby the fish can retain its natural flavour.
