Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Spice Paste

    In a blender, combine red chili paste, grated coconut, coriander seeds, turmeric powder, garlic, ginger, and salt. Blend until you have a smooth paste.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Salmon

    Rub the spice paste over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are well coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cook the Onions

    In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they are translucent.

  4. 4

    Add Kokum and Salmon

    Add kokum pieces to the skillet. Place the marinated salmon fillets on top and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once cooked, remove the salmon from the skillet. Serve hot with steamed rice or parathas, garnished with fresh coriander if desired.
