In a fish poacher or roaster large enough to lay salmon in pan, combine all ingredients except the fish. Add can of broth. Then add enough water to the pan to cover the thickness of the fish, then remove fish. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes.

Place the fish in the pan and set your timer once the water returns to a simmer. Do not boil the fish-- it will break up. Allow 10 minutes for each 1 inch of thickness for frsh fish. Lift the salmon from the cooking liquid, and serve hot with coriander sauce. (reserve 1/2 cup poaching liquid for the sauce).

TIPS.
7
While fish poaches it is important to keep water just below a bubbling boil. A bubbling boil will cause the fish to break apart, and alter cooking time. The other important thing is to take the fish out of the cooking liquid as soon as fish is done. Do not let fish cool in pot; it will be over done and tough.
