Salmon Curry

I love Fish Curry and miss eating Indian style Fish Curry here is in the US. As we don’t get Rohu here and finding another Indian fish here is little difficult. AND also making Fish Curry is something which is not My Cup Of Tea/Coffee :P. Though once I made Tilapia Fish Curry which came out good but still I am scared of cooking fish curries :D. But what to do when you crave for fish curry that too Indian style. So this time tried making Salmon Curry and it turned out yummy and delicious.

This Salmon Curry is very easy to make and goes well with plain rice or chapati.
