Instructions

Step 1

In a large pot, heat oil over medium. Add onion, ginger and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Add red bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add curry paste and cook approximate 30 seconds. Add miso and cook, stirring frequently, until miso is lightly caramelized, about 2 minutes.

Step 2

Add coconut milk, 3 cups water and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until liquid is slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Stir in salmon, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer gently until just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Turn off heat and stir in spinach and lime juice.

Divide rice among bowls. Top with salmon curry, roasted pumpkin, basil and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing on top.
