Salmon fish fry

Hi
  For the first time  i prepared fish after my marriage and surprisingly it came out very good and now salmon has became one of my fav recipe.


Ingredients for Simple Salmon Fry Recipe
Salmon - 1 lb
(cut into small)
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
Salt - As reqd
Lime - 1/2 pc
Red chilly powder - 1 tsp
oil
coriander-1

Preparation Method of Simple Salmon Fry Recipe1

Squeeze the lime over the salmon.
Mix little water and other ingredients to make a paste.
Marinate the salmon with the above paste for 10 - 20 mins.

Now is the fun bit: using your hands - make sure that each fish piece is thoroughly coated with the spice mixture - ensuring that the powder dows not "clump" together at all - use the fish pieces to evenly mix the spice/lemon-juice/oil mixture. Then finally - place the fish pieces "face down" - i.e. skin side up and cover the dish with clingfilm. Place this in the fridge for an hour or two - that will give you plenty of time to get on with other things that you need to do.

When you come back - get a large frying pan - and pour in a few drops of olive oil - and get the flame going high to get the pan really hot. If you have an extractor fan above your hob - you should get that going on max as well. Then - when the pan is real hot - place the fish pieces in - skin-side down - and let them stay in the pan for a few minutes - sizzling away. Shake the pan horizontally slightly (but not too much) - just to ensure that the pieces don't stick and burn on the surface of the pan. It helps to use non-stick frying pan for this method.

After about 6 mins - use a spatula or tongs to carefully turn over each fish piece so that the skin-side is now up. You can see that it is beginning to look quite good now. You may reduce the heat a bit at this point - because by cooking the fish on high heat with skin-side down you have actually very gently cooked the fish right up to the top of the fish - and all you want to do now is to brown the top. However - be warned if you follow these instructions the salmon will be very tender and "just-cooked" in the middle
Pour some light oil (like Sunflower Oil ) in a flat pan and stir fry.

:- Serve hot with coriander ,onions and lemon.
