  Salmon is a great source of protein and omega 3 fatty acids. I created this dish with Indian spices and an Asian flare. The poaching liquid with spices penetrates the flavors into the Salmon, thereby elevating the tasting experience. I like to serve this over a simple salad or as an accompaniment to Naan, Paratha, Rice or vermicelli. I hope you enjoy this dish and live Long and Strong!
