Ingredients (Makes 6 – 8 kebabs)
1. Salmon – Around 350 gm ( I used 2 frozen wild salmon fillets from Costco)
2. Ginger – 1 tbsp, minced
Garlic – 1 tbsp, minced
Bread crumbs – 1.5 – 2 tbsp
Cilantro – 2 tbsp, finely chopped
Mint leaves – 2 tbsp, finely chopped
Turmeric powder – 1/4 tsp
Garam masala powder – 1/2 tsp
Cumin powder – 1/4 tsp
Pepper powder – 1/2 tsp
Chilly powder – 1/2 tsp
Salt – To taste
3. Olive oil / vegetable oil – 1.5 tbsp or as required to pan fry
4. Bamboo skewers – 6 – 8, soaked in water for 30 minutes
Method
1. Grind salmon pieces in a mixie or food processor to a coarse mixture (don’t grind to a paste). Transfer it to a large bowl and add all the ingredients numbered 2. Mix well. Grease your palms and press the mixture on to a skewer. If the patty does not stick to the skewer, add more bread crumbs and mix well.
2. Heat 2 tbsp oil at medium heat. Fry the prepared raw salmon kebabs on all sides, until golden brown and done, about 8 minutes. Remove the salmon kebabs from oil and serve with cucumber raita, green chutney or yoghurt sauce.
Yoghurt sauce
Greek yoghurt - 1/2 cup
Mint leaves – 2 tbsp, finely chopped
Cumin powder – 1 pinch
Chilly powder – 1 – 2 pinches
Salt – To taste
Olive oil – 2 tsp
Combine all the above ingredients in a small bowl. Serve with salmon kebabs.
