Panfried Salmon in Indian spices

This is a recipe which my Mom makes using fresh water or sea fish. Fishes like Salmon and Tilapia would go very well with this spice mix. The dish can be served with a simple side of shallot salsa. The spice rub can be modified to make it less hot.

Spice Rub

• 1/2 tsp Turmeric

Fish Fry:

Clean the fish by removing the scales.
