Method
step 1
For the raita, combine the yogurt, cucumber, chia seeds, cumin and half the coriander. Season with salt. Top with the pomegranate seeds and the rest of the coriander. Chill for 20 mins-1 hr until ready to serve.
step 2
Meanwhile, put the sweet potato cubes in a heatproof bowl with a splash of water. Cover with a plate and microwave for 6-7 mins until tender. Drain and set aside.
step 3
Heat the oil in a large pan over a medium heat and cook the cumin seeds and cardamom pods for 1-2 mins until fragrant. Stir in the onion and cook for 5-6 mins until softened and golden. Mix in the garlic, ginger, tomato purée, turmeric and garam masala, and cook for another minute. Remove the cardamom pods, then add the spinach and 500ml water, and cook until wilted. Transfer to a blender and blitz into a smooth sauce.
step 4
Return the sauce to the pan, stir through the cooked sweet potato, and season with salt. Nestle the salmon chunks in the sauce, then cover and cook gently for 6-8 mins, or until the fish is just cooked through. Scatter over the coriander, pomegranate seeds, pistachios and a squeeze of lime before serving with rice and the raita.
