I have been trying to include more fish and chicken in our diet. It took a while for us to get used to the smelly fish – salmon. Since this is one of the healthiest fishes available in the market here, I try to make something with it atleast once a week. Recently I tried 2 types of kababs with them. I think they looked kinda cool. So Ishaan was ready to try these. The pieces get marinated very well as they are cut into small pieces.
Ingredients:
1 lb salmon cut into 2×2 inch pieces
1 tbl spn chopped coriander leaves
Lemon wedges
Marinade : Make a smooth paste of following
1/2 cup thick yogurt
1 tea spn ginger
1 tea spn garlic
1 tea spn chilli powder
A pinch turmeric
1/2 tea spn coriander powder
1/2 tea spn cumin powder
1/2 tea spn amchoor powder
Salt
Method:
Apply the marinade to salmon pieces. Add the coriander leaves. Leave it aside for atleast 2hrs.
Arrange the pieces on skewers. Grill them till done. I use my cast iron grill pan for grilling.
Serve hot with lemon. Serve it as a starter or as a main dish with some rice and a simple dal.
Serves : 2-3
Preparation time : 30mins
Pictorial:
Yummy dish…:-) while grilling fish on cast iron pan have you used oil??
Just a few drops of oil. Make sure to wait till the pan is hot before you put the fish. Otherwise it sticks
Hmmm! Hunks of raw salmon! 🙂 Those look absolutely delish!

No. It is a different fish. I heard it is available in Bangalore these days. I don’t think it has a Indian name

I somehow haven’t got used to the taste of salmon yet. but the recipe looks yummy, will try it with some other fish that I come across
Instead of grilling, can I bake it? If so, what temperature and how long? Any other ways to cook this instead of grilling?
You could shallow fry them on tava. I haven’t tried baking.
I generally make this way instead of yogurt u can use olive oil and no need to use oil for frying this taste v good.

Norwegian Salon is rarely found in Mumbai. Got it today & tried your recipe “Spicy Salmon Kababs”!!! It was an absolute delight & very yummy, my husband was happy as I definitely did justice to the salmon! Thanks a lot, Shilpa!
Use any fish.
Salmon’s Indian (Hindi/Marathi) name is Rawas.
Not exactly! The Rawas is called Indian salmon but it’s a different variety altogether.
Atlantic salmon is available in starBazar (Tata).
