Salmon really is the only non-vegetarian thing I ever eat and that sauce is making me crave it big time!
Malice
You could try vegetarian salmon. I've never had it, but it certainly sounds tasty!

Where do you get passion fruit puree? Is it available in the stores or is it something you just make? Just don't remember ever seeing it.
Erica
Chris- If you find fresh passion fruit you can make it, but I buy frozen puree at the supermarket.
Malice
If your grocery store doesn't carry it, you can get it online.

Erica

Muchas gracias!
It was a gorgeous dish, grilled the salmon in the charcoal BBQ for that smoky taste that paired awesomely with the maracujá! 🙂
