Our daughter n law cooked this Pakistani inspired spring salmon recipe for us a few weeks back ; funny thing she doesn't even like salmon, special thanks go out to slabber's son for reeling it in 
It turned out really fine and yes the daughter n law enjoyed her salmon.
Masala Salmon You only wish your local Pakistani grill (tikka) restaurant offered fish this good.
