Ingredients

Roast Tandoori Salmon

  •  2 salmon fillets, 400g each, bones removed, skin left on

  • 3 tbsp Patak’s tandoori paste

  • 1 tbsp Greek yoghurt

  • Large handful fresh herbs, I like coriander, dill & chives, roughly chopped

  • ½ lemon, sliced

Garlic Coriander Raita

  • 1 bulb garlic, cut in half lengthways

  • 1 tsp vegetable oil

  • ½ cup (140g) Greek yogurt

  • 2 tbsp fresh coriander leaves

  • Good pinch of salt, to taste

Serve with

  • Salad

    Patak’s Mini Pappadums

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees (C).

    In a bowl mix together Patak’s tandoori paste and yoghurt. Rub over both sides of the salmon.

    Line a baking tray with baking paper. Lay a salmon fillet, skin side down, on top. Sprinkle over the fresh herbs and lay over the lemon slices. Place the other salmon fillet on top, skin side up.

    Roast the salmon in the oven for 30 - 35 minutes until the salmon is cooked through. It may take a little longer depending on the thickness of your fillets.

    In the meantime, prepare the roast garlic by drizzling the bulb with oil and adding a good pinch of salt. Wrap in foil and pop in the oven for 30 minutes.

    The bulb with soften and turn golden brown and utterly delicious.

    Squeeze out the soft garlic cloves, crush with the back of a fork and stir in the yoghurt, fresh coriander and season with salt.

    Serve the roast tandoori salmon with salad, Patak’s Mini Pappadums and garlic coriander raita.
