Seduction meals curry Salmon Recipe

Curry Salmon. Mmmmm! For me, whenever I am cooking for curry lovers this dish is always a hit. A friend of mine taught me this recipe years ago (thank you Virginia!) and its one of my favorite preparations for salmon. I made this last night for a romantic dinner for two served with snow peas and rice, and a bottle of champagne.

The sparkly bubbles compliment the salmon with its mild spicy curry flavor. Of course if you like it spicy you can add a bit more heat with the cayenne pepper (or you can use jalapeno pepper). I say this meal will knock his socks off because its one of those dishes that once you serve it, people will always ask for it when they come over. I hope you try it and enjoy it as much as we did.
