Ingredients

  • 3 (6 ounce) fillets salmon, cut into cubes
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 medium onions, sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
  • 2 teaspoons cumin seeds
  • 2 teaspoons garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 2 tomatoes, grated
  • 2 cups water
  • salt to taste

Method

  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Gently fry salmon pieces until easily flaked with a fork, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
  • Heat remaining oil in the same pan over medium heat. Add onions, garlic, and ginger; fry until golden, about 7 minutes. Add cumin, garam masala, and turmeric. Cook and stir until fragrant, about 10 seconds. Add tomatoes; cook until they start to reduce, about 5 minutes. Add water and salt; bring to a boil.
  • Return salmon to the pan and reduce heat to low. Simmer until flavors combine, about 10 minutes.
