Method
Pat dry salmon filets with napkins to remove any excess moisture
Season with salt and black pepper first on both sides. Sprinkle on the geera and the smoked paprika. Massage these two spices onto the both sides and service areas of the fish.
In a medium sauté pan on high heat, add the olive oil and pan sear the salmon on both sides for approximately 2 minutes each and then turn off the stove. Leave salmon in hot pan to rest.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the olive oil and melt the butter.
Add the onions and garlic and cook for 2 minutes, stirring often. Add the turmeric and cook for an additional 1 minute while stirring constantly. Add the coconut milk, heavy cream and pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer, and cook for 5 minutes stirring occasionally. Add the Chadon Beni and season lightly with salt and black pepper. Spoon sauce over the salmon fillets and serve warm.
