Salmon in a Tomato-Cream Sauce
- 1 1/2 pounds skinned salmon fillet from the center of the fish (where it is thickest), first cut lengthways down the center and then crossways to make 8 pieces

- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- 1 tablespoon olive or canola oil
- 1/2 teaspoon whole cumin seeds
- Season the salmon pieces by sprinkling the salt, pepper, turmeric, and cayenne on all sides and rubbing them in.
- Put the salmon in a plastic bag and refrigerate for 1 hour or longer.
- Combine all the ingredients for the sauce and mix well.
- Refrigerate if needed.
- To cook the fish, put the oil in a frying pan and set on medium heat.
- When hot, put in the cumin seeds.
- When the seeds have sizzled for 10 seconds, pour in the sauce.
