Best Salmon Kedgeree

1 tablespoon canola oil (or ghee, if you've got it)

1 tablespoon mustard seeds

½ teaspoon turmeric

1 to 2 tablespoons Indian-style jarred curry paste, such as Patak's (if you don't have this, you can substitute 1 to 1 ½ Tbsp curry powder (depending on your taste and the spiciness of your curry), mixed with a splash of oil and ½ tsp tomato paste)

1 onion, finely chopped

1 clove garlic, minced

1 thumb-sized piece of ginger, julienned or grated

5 cups cooked long-grain white rice (yeah, my picture has overcooked short-grain brown rice, but long grain white would be better)

1 lemon, juiced

1 pinch salt

1 pound cooked salmon, flaked into bite-sized pieces

½ bunch spinach, washed, dried and roughly chopped (optional)

1 bunch cilantro, washed, dried and roughly chopped
