SALMON TENGA

This delicious , economical curry dish originates in northern India.
You can substitute the salmon for any firm white fleshed fish , chicken , pork fillet or eliminate the meat and fish altogether and in place add firm tofu or  sweet golden potato along with the potato that is already part of the recipe.

Rub your salmon fillets all over with salt and pepper .
Heat 3 tbs of oil , we used an oil infused with chilli  ( my homemade infusion )
Add the salmon steaks and fry for 2 minutes on each side .
Remove from pan to a plate and set aside . Do not clean the pan .
Chop a small amount of coriander leaves, stem and hairy root and place in a processor  with 2 green chillies with seeds roughly chopped , 3 tbs of minced garlic and 3 tbs of minced ginger .
