Salmão
com Salsinha da Maria Cacilda
e Leite de Coco Paraibano

Ingredientes:
200 ml de leite de coco da Paraíba
1/2 kg de salmão do Alasca (daqueles que os ursos gostam!)
Sal potiguar e pimenta-do-reino da Pérsia a gosto
1/2 xícara (chá) de maionese grega
Suco de 1/2 limão gaulês
1 colher (sopa) de azeite extra-virgem do Ribatejo
1 cebola jamaicana cortada em rodelas
1 colher (sopa) de amido de milho colombiano
1 1/2 xícara (chá) de leite de ovelha javanesa
Salsa picadinha da barraca da Maria Cacilda da feira da praça da Ucrânia

Modo de preparo:
Corte o salmão em fatias grossas, tempere com limão, sal, pimenta e metade da maionese e deixe tomar gosto por alguns minutos.
Numa frigideira com tampa, coloque o azeite e a cebola, regue com metade do leite de coco e leve ao fogo baixo, tampada, por 10 minutos.
Acrescente as postas de salmão e cozinhe de 5 a 7 minutos até o salmão começar a soltar suas fibras.
Em uma panela, faça um creme com o leite de coco restante, a maisena e o leite, cozinhando sem parar de mexer, até engrossar.
Retire do fogo, acrescente a maionese restante e despeje sobre o salmão, polvilhando com salsa. Sirva bem quente.

Como trilha sonora recomendo The Salmon Dance, do Chemical Brothers:

Hello Boys and Girls, my name is FatLip
and this is my friend Sammy the Salmon

''1 - 2''

Today, we're going to teach you
some fun facts about Salmon,
And a brand new dance.

Let me introduce to you a brand new dance
I know you're gonna love it if you give it one chance
It's not complicated, it's not too hard
You don't even have to be a hip hop star

See anyone can do it, all you need is style
Listen up peep gang (?) I'm a show you how
Put your hands to the side, as silly
AS SILLY AS IT SEEMs
And shake your body like a salmon floatin' up stream!

I'll float up stream
(you know how we do it, you know how we do it)
Again

*All my peeps spend part of their life in fresh water*
*And part of their life in salt water*

Wow, very interesting

*We change round a couple of days after spawning*
*Then we DIE* (?)

When I first did the Salmon all the people just laughed
They looked around and stood like I was on crack
I heard somebody say out loud what the fuck is that
This nigga's dancin like a fish while he's doin' the snap

But the more I kept doing it the more they kept feelin' it
Tnd then I heard some bitches say yo that niggas killin' it
By the end of the night everyone was on my team
And the whole club was dancing like a salmon floatin' up stream!

I'll float up stream
(you know how we do it, you know how we do it)
again.

*Most of our friends find their home waters by their sense of smell*
*which is even more keen than that of a dog or a bear*

Wow.

*My family also rely on ocean currents, tides*
*The gravitational pull of the moon*

The moon? Fish pay attention to the moon? Wow.

*Did you know?*

What?

*That I could go to Japan, and back.*

You're kidding me. Amazing. Jeez.

*Polluted water can kill both baby salmon, that are developing*
*and the adult salmon, that are on their way to spawn.*

Wow what a shame, what a shame
Huh?
Woah.
Wow. Hey kids, hey give it up for Sammy the Salmon and his amazing salmon dance.
Huh? Whadda ya say?
Who's Hungry?
