Laksa Salmon With Asparagus Stir Fry

Laksa salmon asparagus stir fry

Salmon is a very delicious fish and comes with many health benefits, especially for its high omega-3. Wild Alaskan salmon is the best but much more expensive. I love to cook salmon because it is easy to cook and tastes very delicious. Just recently I have come to like smoked salmon.

This salmon stir fry with asparagus is very simple and easy. The laksa paste adds beautiful flavour and taste to it. The laksa paste that I used here is the same one that I used in Malaysian Curry Fish Laksa. Here is my recipe:

Ingredients A
500g salmon (cut into pieces)
1T soya sauce
1T corn flour
1T sesame oil

Fresh salmon

Fried salmon pieces

Marinate the salmon pieces with the rest of the ingredients in Ingredients A for about 30 minutes. Pan fry the salmon pieces and keep aside.

Ingredients B
250g asparagus (washed and cut)
2T laksa paste
1T fried garlic oil
2T water
light soya sauce to season

Laksa paste and asparagus

Heat up some fried garlic oil in a frying pan or wok. Add the laksa paste, asparagus and the water. Give a stir and cover it for a couple of minutes. Asparagus is very tender and cooks fast so don’t overcook it. Test for doneness according to your preference. Lastly add the salmon pieces and add some light soya sauce to taste. Dish up and serve hot. As usual, my family likes it with rice.

Some salmons are expensive, but your seasoning can make more wallet-friendly cuts delicious for sure!

Jeannie on July 3rd, 2010

I seldom eat salmon but I guess other types of fish would taste nice too huh? Would love to try cooking fish this way instead of just deep frying.

I’m going to try this dish with our local fish fillet. Lucky you, can have salmon so often. Over here they cost a bomb, can only buy them when there’s an offer!

That is a beautiful piece of fresh salmon! Looks delicious, Mary!

love the idea of using laksa paste for stir fries!

TasteHongKong on July 5th, 2010

I like every ingredient for this dish, bad thing is I don’t have a bottle of laksa paste with me : (.

OohLookBel on July 5th, 2010

Stir-frying with laksa paste is a brilliant idea. It would go really well with the salmon, and it looks great, too.

Ananda on July 5th, 2010

oh wow Lip-Smacking

lequan@luvtoeat on July 5th, 2010

Oooh, I must try this as I cook with salmon lots and am crazy over Laksa! I think I will fit in just fine at your dining table. Teehee.

@Belinda @zomppa- Thanks very much, Beinda!

@Nasi Lemak Lover - Thanks very much, Sonia!

@pigpigscorner - I should have learned from you long time ago……have just discovered it. Not too late huh

@the lacquer spoon - Haha…you are very right Time is bad but we can spend less and still enjoy good food.

@Jeannie - I’m sure other types of fish works well too. I seldom do deep fry. I hate cleaning up my kitchen. If I have to, I would do it outside but then it’s most of the time too cold. Summer is here so I may do deep fry soon

@divya - Thanks very much, Divya!

@Cheah - If you visit UK, do eat more salmon. But this dish should work well with other fish. Now I miss all the fresh fish back home

@Faith - Thanks very much, Faith!

@elra - Wonderful to know you love laksa too I really like it. Have to cook it again.

@sushma mallya - Thanks very much, Sushma!

@Drick - Thanks very much, Drick! I’m back!

@Cook with Madin - Thanks very much, Madin! I’m back!

@penny aka jeroxie - Indeed you are very right….beautiful flavour…mmm

@anncoo - Thanks very much, Ann!

@Blackswan - Have a try. It’s delicious. My family likes it very much. And your blog….wow….nice layout and very organised.
Well done!

@Angie’s Recipes - Thanks very much, Angie! I can’t get a lot of my favourite fish here. Most are very expensive.

@kristy - Thanks very much, Kristy!

@noobcook - Give a try. It’s really simple, easy and makes delicious dishes

@TasteHongKong - Try Asian shops. They should have, either in bottles or in packets. I always buy the packet ones, Malaysian brand. Have fun cooking

@OohLookBel - Thanks very much!

@Ananda - Thanks very much!

@lequan@luvtoeat - If we stay in the same town, I think the place would run out of salmon because of the 2 of us….haha.
We will have salmon every meal…haha
