Chetinaad Spiced Salmon Steaks, Mustard Cress Potatoes , Tomato

"This is a good recipe from the south of India. Good for fish lovers who like bold flavours and want to eat healthy. The recipe is complete with just a few steps and the ingredients are simple and blend well together. Reminds me of me as a trainee in the Connemara hotel in Chennai where I learned it. It was hot and work load was immence but the learning was great."
