Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
CURRY SAUCE
3
While the salmon bakes, heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the Thai red curry paste and grated ginger, cooking for 2-3 minutes until very fragrant.
4
Add the chopped broccoli to the skillet, followed by the coconut milk, soy sauce, and fish sauce. Let it simmer for 15 minutes until the broccoli is tender.
RICE
5
In another saucepan, melt 5 tablespoons of butter. Add the minced garlic and chili flakes and saute until the garlic is lightly golden.
6
Add the rice to the saucepan, stirring to ensure it's fully coated with the butter mixture. Add 4 cups of water, bring to boil, then reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for about 15-20 minutes until all water is absorbed.
ASSEMBLY
