Exploring Fish has now become my passion and I am always on a lookout for receipes with fish. I found this receipe in a magazine in YMCA lobby and modified it to suit my Spicy Indian Taste. This was a receipe for Tilapia but I tried it with Salmon and just loved it

The receipe eveolved and it just has a hint of the original receipe.

  • Garlic
  • Olives
  • Chilli
  • Cumin Powder
  • Crushed Pepper

  • Olive Oil

  • Salmon / Tilapia Fillets 




Procedure:
  1. Chop Onion, Tomatoes, Musrooms and Olives finely.
  2. To a Pan Add little Olive Oil and add the Onion. When it becomes transparent add the Mint leaves and Salt.
  3. Add Tomatoes, Mushrooms and saute it.
  4. Add Cumin Powder, Salt (if needed), and Pepper Powder.
  5. Cover and cook the sauce in low flame until the flavours are blended and the sauce is boiling.

Baked Fish - Salmon / Tilapia Fillets

Baked Green Fish Fillet with Fresh Strawberries

Its Holiday time and there was no dearth for parties and I found everyone talking about calories, dieting and eating greens. This made me think back and find out what I am eating. My love for cooking made me browse for some interesting baking receipes for entree. Fish is my favourite ingredient and I found a beginners baked fish version in a website . I tried the receipe with Tilapia fillet and the ingredients I had. I substituted some ingredients for the ones I didn't have and my husband and me  loved it right from the first bite. Now it has become a rage in my house to bake green fish.

I picked the receipe from http://allrecipes.com/recipe/baked-salmon-ii/ and modified the receipe to suit the ingredients I had and also my Indian palate. The receipe eveolved and it just has a hint of the original receipe.

Spinach
Corriander Leaves
Garlic cloves

Cumin Seeds

Tilappia / Salmon Fillets
