  • Once the salmon is done, set aside on a plate.Heat remaining oil in the same pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant.
  • Add mushrooms and cook until slightly golden brown and tender. Add broth and coconut cream, season with salt and pepper, if needed.

Notes

  • Coconut cream is the Thai Kitchen coconut MILK in the can
  • You may use heavy cream if you prefer it over coconut cream/milk
  • It is best to use fresh spinach
  • Use any other mushroom of your choice. It is better to use fresh mushrooms as opposed to mushrooms in cans
