About the cook: I am a retiree living in the east valley of Phoenix, AZ. Both my wife and I worked in pubic service for over thirty years and we are enjoying volunteering and retirement. Cooking has been a hobby ever since I discovered that the only cook worse than my mom was her mom.

About the dish: Salmon fillet with a spicy rub of middle eastern ingredients.

Ingredients:

2 8 oz salmon fillets skinned
olive oil

Preparation:

pat dry the salmon fillets

rub each fillet with olive oil

season the fillets with salt, pepper and coriander

dredge and coat completely each fillet

combine remaining seasonings with the sour cream and add Tbspn of olive oil (the olive oil prevents the sour cream from separating when heated
