Add remaining ingredients except salmon and bring to a boil. Turn heat to medium-low and simmer 5 minutes Add salmon, cover and simmer 6-8 min or until fish is cooked through (check at backbone).
Lift steaks out onto hot platter with an egg turner. Lift onions out and lay over fish. Serve immediately with chilled yogurt-cucumber mixture.
Note: Strain cooking liquid from the fish and freeze to use in fish soup another day.
