A delicious Tandoori preparation using salmon for a great Indian appetizer.
By Soni Sinha
I love Tandoori preparations. So simple, yet packed with flavor and irresistible. They look great on any table and are versatile enough to be served as an appetizer or a main dish. They’re surprisingly easy and flavorful and do not require much effort. You can marinade your fish, chicken or paneer overnight and grill them the next day. Here I’ve combined this preparation with my favorite fish Salmon.
