Tandoori Salmon: Spice Marinated Salmon
- 2 pieces Salmon filets
- 1 tsp Cooking sake
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 2 tbsp Plain yogurt (optional)
- 1/2 tsp Cumin powder
- 1 tsp Garam masala
- 1/2 tsp Red chili powder
- 1/2 tsp Turmeric
- 1/2 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil (or if you have it, mustard oil)
- 1 clove, finely chopped Garlic
- 1 Onion
- 1 Salt and pepper
- Wash the salmon well, sprinkle with cooking sake or lemon juice and leave for 10 minutes.
- Season generously with salt.
- While the salmon marinates, mix the ingredients together.
- You can omit the yogurt and just rub the spices on the salmon - it's delicious that way too.
- (I tried it out.)
- Put the combined ingredients in a container or a plastic bag, add the salmon and coat it well.
- Leave to marinate in the refrigerator overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 180C.
- Oil a piece of aluminium foil, place the salmon on it and drizzle with more oil.
- Bake in the oven for about 10 minutes or until cooked through.
- You can cook it in a frying pan instead.
- While the fish is cooking, slice the onion lengthwise (with the grain), and stir fry in a frying pan with about 1 teaspoon of oil.
- Cook until it's a light golden brown, and season with salt and pepper.
- When the fish is cooked, it's done.
- Serve with vegetables or other accompaniments of your choice.
- Serve the salmon on top of a bed of the stir fried onions, or serve the onions on top, or on the side...
- Enjoy while warm, with white rice, naan or paratha breads.
