In addition to the powerful range of disease-fighting antioxidant phytonutrients you’ll enjoy in this quick curry – including geraniol (from the lemongrass), allicin and ajoene (from the garlic), and gingerols (from the ginger) to name just a few… you’ll also get an excellent source of 13 vitamins and minerals.
In fact, just one serving of this fragrant curry provides:
- 48% of the daily value for Vitamin B6
- 59% for Vitamin B12
- 48% for Niacin
- 25% for Riboflavin
- 19% for Thiamin
- 28% for Copper

- 44% for Manganese

And thanks to wild salmon, you’ll also get 2 grams of the omega-3 essential fatty acids, EPA and DHA. These vital fats – in short supply in most modern diets, are powerful anti-inflammatory agents, found also to boost brain health, support mood, improve insulin sensitivity and promote a lean physique.
But there’s a catch…
In today’s polluted world, it’s important to source our foods carefully. And nowhere is this truer than with seafood.
Unfortunately, most commercial salmon is farm-raised and contains a laundry list of harmful toxins like PCBs, dioxins and more. For your best health, opt to purchase wild seafood from a reputable company, like Vital Choice. Not only do they offer seafood that is sustainably sourced and tested for purity, it is also of the highest quality available..
And now for the simple, step-by-step recipe for this bold, flavorful and satisfying soup.
A quick and delicious Thai curry in minutes. Serve over cauliflower rice.

Anthony says
I cheat a bit and put a single sheet of film on the bottom of a buttered waffle iron or machine, add ingredients and put another sheet on top with a bit of butter and put the lid down. As long and there isn’t too much filing, it’s a less fiddly operation. I’ve had cream all over my shoes a couple of times so I know now not to press to hard on the lid.
