Ingredients:

- Salmon slices

- Oil

Paste ingredients:

- Handful of fresh coriander leaves

- 3 cloves of garlic

- 1 teaspoon chili powder

- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder

- 1 teaspoon salt

- 1 teaspoon coriander powder

- 2 shallots, peeled

- 1/2 teaspoon pepper powder

- 3 teaspoons oil

Instructions:

1. Grind all the paste ingredients together in a food processor or mortar and pestle until you achieve a smooth consistency.

2. Mix in 3 teaspoons of oil into the ground paste to create a flavorful marinade.

3. Generously apply the mixture onto both sides of the salmon slices, ensuring they are evenly coated. Allow the salmon to marinate for 3-4 hours in the refrigerator, or for an even richer flavor, marinate overnight.

4. Heat a shallow frying pan over medium heat and add a little oil to coat the bottom of the pan.

5. Once the pan is hot, carefully place the marinated salmon slices into the pan, skin side down. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the salmon is cooked through and has a golden crust.

6. Serve the deliciously fragrant salmon hot off the pan, garnished with a wedge of lemon for an extra burst of citrus freshness.

Enjoy this delectable salmon dish as a main course or as part of a sumptuous seafood feast.
