Salmon sarciado
Sarciado is one of my favourite ways to enjoy a simply fried piece of salmon. The slight acidic bite helps to cut the oiliness of the fish, while the sweetness keeps you coming back for more. I learned the basics of the recipe from my mum and my aunt. Unlike traditional sarciados, theirs don't feature eggs, so neither does mine.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Add a splash of veg oil to a large nonstick pan on medium-high heat. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper and sear them in the pan, skin-side first, for 5 to 6 minutes per side until cooked. Remove the fish to a paper-towel lined plate.
- 2
Wipe the oil and any residue from the pan, and add a fresh splash of veg oil. Lay the tomatoes in, flesh-side down, and don't touch them for 5 minutes. Let them scorch and bubble and release their juice.
- 3
Stir the tomato paste, shallot, garlic, and pepper flakes into the pan. Let fry for 2 minutes. Add the green pepper and fry another 2 minutes.
- 4
Add the vinegar, sugar, and a 1/2 cup water to the sauce. Stir, then let simmer 2 or 3 minutes to reduce. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve the sauce underneath or beside the salmon, so you don't ruin the beautiful crispy skin.

Summer Salmon Summer Salmon
At the market, the tomatoes are starting to look pretty good, so I picked up a few. I was in the mood for salmon and got a small tail-end fillet chunk. The salmon set me thinking that dill might work with tomatoes. I'm not sure why I thought to brown the butter, but it makes sense in hindsight. There was an element missing, so I found some Greek yogurt in the fridge and added dill, but it was lacking. Tried salt and pepper. There was a definite improvement, but not quite there. A touch of horseradish sealed the deal. It made sense to use the, "tomato story," bowl I got at Daiso, a Japanese dollar store near my house. Pretty satisfied with the results overall. I'd put it on a menu.

Salmon Oscar Salmon Oscar
This dish is decadent and delicious that gets prepared for special occasions, especially when you want to impress. It's my spin on a classic dish using salmon (instead of veal). It's easy to prepare and can be completed (start to finish) in about 30 minutes. The trick naturally is using a sauce packet for the béarnaise sauce. However, I would highly recommend making your own at some point, if not for the slight challenge, then to achieve the status / rank of a true cook!

There's a million ways to make fish tacos, and this is my version. Because I'm a proud West Coast Canadian, I used salmon instead of the usual whitefish, and put a hint of maple syrup in the sauce. The best thing about this recipe is that everything can be made ahead of time, and assembled at the table. -
