Just a salad with red leaf lettuce, chickpeas and sun-dried tomatoes; a pecan garlic creamy vinaigrette, avocado, and alder wood home smoked salmon.
Since I've got more time than sense, here's a couple more pictures to show how quick and easy home smoked salmon can be.
Skinned a 1¼ lb. salmon fillet. You don't have to skin it though.
Soaked fillets in brine ten minutes. Don't have to do this either but it might cut down on the coagulated protein that surfaces on cooked salmon.
Tablespoon of fine alder wood chips in the bottom of an indoor smoker.
With drip tray, rack, and salmon.
Started 18-minute timer when I first smelled the alder smoke.
You can see the brine strategy is only partially successful. Sorry the picture is so blurry; forgot to put my glasses on.
The 4 larger pieces are left-over for salads, omelets, sandwiches, etc.

Thank you for the comment.Just a suggestion but next time start with the temp at 120F for 30min, 140F for 30min and then 160F until done. Otherwise you get those white ugly and unappetizing fat drippings come up.
Smoke alarm did not go off??
A smoke alarm isn't an issue because there is very little visible smoke; much less than you would get with a pan sear. Abundant beautiful and long-lingering aroma though.
The temperatures you recommend work great in environments with separate heat and smoke chambers. It isn't an option in an indoor stovetop smoker though. They are really just lidded broiler pans. The black device underneath is a separate single burner induction cooktop, essentially just a hotplate. With the burner at those temperatures, the wood would never produce any smoke.2 -
My typical work lunch. This one was rice with some eggplant chotkha and tomato/cucumber as a snack
Dinner a couple nights back was cauliflour rice mixed with tumeric and a bit of chilli. Topped with an eggplant stirfry, some raddish and egg with spring onion to garnish
Then of course, my element. Some fijian style lamb curry with eggplant chotkha as a side with a little bit of ginger pickle (really tasty!)

Kabab koobideh made with lamb and beef and seasoned with sabzi, sumac, white & black pepper, minced onion, and a touch of paprika + Jasmine rice with Persian saffron + Tawa naan + Sweet peppers, tomatoes, parsley, cilantro, and onion. This is usually made with basmati rice, but I always go with Jasmine rice because it smells heavenly. Persian cuisine with Indian flatbread. Pictures can't do it justice.

Thanks! It is so simple to make....I use a large bag of California blend veggies (frozen) and thaw them in a colander in the sink. When they are thawed, saute them in some butter in a large skillet, then toss in 2 handfuls of greens (spinach, kale, arugula...whatever you like). When the greens are about half wilted, season with salt, pepper, garlic salt or whatever spices you like. Then, pour in 12 beaten eggs and scramble everything together. When done, divide into 6 containers, and just pull one out each morning. I microwave mine for 1.5 minutes, then add some cheese on top and microwave another 30 seconds. Add sriracha (and black pepper! LOL) and enjoy!1

Cornbread French Toast
Cornbread, left-over from last night, was made with three parts stone ground cornmeal and one part whole wheat flour from hard white winter wheat with brown sugar and sautéed onion and jalapeño added to the batter.
The cornbread was dipped in egg, almond milk, and cinnamon then fried in butter and olive oil. Topped with hot dark amber pure maple syrup.
Same amount of whole grain as my usual oats and buckwheat porridge.2 -
