On our Mid-Winter Vacation with Kosher Luxe in Mammoth California the culinary team there served a delicious Moroccan Salmon appetizer for Shabbos dinner. My kids loved it so much they kept asking for more, and in true Kosher Luxe style they had plenty for all. Upon returning back to New York after vacation my kids requested one dish for Shabbos and that was the Moroccan Salmon we had on vacation. Since I forgot to ask the chef’s there how they made it, here is my take on it and since my kids love it, I think we have a winner!

How much is one can crushed tomatoes?
When you say a can of crushed tomatoes, should it be the smaller can (approximately 15 oz) or the large can (approximately 28 oz.)? Thank you.
I made this last night and it was phenomenal! Thank you for sharing!!
