Zubereitung

1. Make rice:
Preheat oven to 400°F.

2. In a saucepan with an ovenproof lid bring rice, water, and butter to boil. Bake rice, covered, in middle of oven 12 minutes. Keep rice warm. (Or, if you don't have a fancy saucepan with an ovenproof lid, you can cook it on the stovetop like normal, ~40min)

3. Make sauce:
In a heavy saucepan sauté gingerroot and garlic in oil over moderately high (medium) heat, stirring, until golden. Add coriander, curry powder, curry paste, paprika, and cumin and sauté, stirring, 1 minute, or until fragrant. Whisk in coconut milk, tomato purée, soy sauce, and brown sugar and bring just to a boil. Remove pan from heat and keep warm.

4. Prepare vegetables:
In a bowl toss together all vegetable ingredients.

5. Prepare grill.
Brush salmon with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Grill salmon on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until just cooked through, about 5 minutes on each side (or if you've realized you've run out of propane and charcoal: heat a cast iron pan on the stove over medium-high, cook fish 5-6 minutes on each side or until pink and flakey).

6. Put (a scoop of rice) each in center of 4 plates and arrange salmon on top. Top salmon with vegetables (or arrange in a ring around the rice) and spoon sauce around it. Sprinkle vegetables with peanuts.
