Ingredients
  • 111.6 g salmon fillet
  • 0.25 cup coconut milk
  • 17.9 g fresh ginger
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 each Thai bird eye chili
  • 118.8 g Roma tomato
  • 1 tsp fish sauce
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 380.2 g sweet potato
  • 178.3 g Swiss chard
Method
  1. 01Peel and cube the sweet potato into 1-inch pieces. Place in a medium saucepan, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 12 to 15 minutes until fork-tender. Drain well and set aside warm.
  2. 02In a wide, shallow pan or skillet over medium heat, combine 1/2 cup of water, coconut milk, minced ginger, minced garlic, sliced Thai chili, diced Roma tomatoes, and fish sauce. Bring to a gentle simmer for 3 to 4 minutes until the tomatoes break down and the broth is fragrant.
  3. 03Season the salmon fillet lightly with salt and gently nestle it into the simmering ginger-coconut broth. Cover the pan, lower the heat to medium-low, and poach for 6 to 8 minutes until the salmon is opaque throughout and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  4. 04During the last 2 minutes of poaching, fold the chopped rainbow Swiss chard into the broth around the salmon, covering the pan to allow the greens to wilt in the steam.
  5. 05To serve, place the warm boiled sweet potato pieces in a deep bowl. Carefully transfer the poached salmon fillet onto the sweet potatoes, and spoon the fragrant spicy ginger-coconut broth and wilted Swiss chard generously over the top.
