Moroccan Salmon with Raita
Of late I have been wanting to make videos of all my food but I promise the moment I enter the kitchen the sun goes down. This weather has been playing havock and to record a video you need good lighting. I don’t have artificial lights (they are far too expensive so I will wait until I get rich…haha!) so I have to rely on natural light. My videos are not the best but I am trying to do better so if I have to do better I can’t start with bad lighting now, can I! My youtube channel is a complete disaster but I am proud of the fact that I started it. I am not tech savvy at all so I go through so many challenges everyday but I keep pushing myself to improve.
It’s much like cooking, so many of my readers message me to say they couldn’t cook but have tried my recipes and they feel more confident. Practice makes perfect. So I say keep going! If I can use a camera after all my struggles you can cook. “Nobody is born a great cook, one learns by doing” – Julia Child. I believe nobody is born a great writer, photographer or videographer too, now I feel better…Lol! I think you are going to love this Moroccan Salmon with Raita. It is super delicious with all those rich flavours and the Raita balances it off beautifully. It is also another quick and easy dish but you will feel like a gourmet chef after serving this.
Can I use other fish
If you don’t have Salmon you can use any firm white fish for this recipe. Fish is a little tricky to cook but as you practice you will know exactly how long to cook your fish. Tori Avey has another recipe for Moroccan Fish using white fish. Her recipe also sounds yummy.
How do I cook my fish
Fish literally takes a couple of minutes to cook. There’s nothing great about over-cooked fish. Heat your pan on medium heat, just for a minute and add the oil. At first the skin will stick to the pan but as it heats up it will release. Don’t be tempted to force it loose or it will become a mess. Wait a couple more seconds and it will be easy to flip over. Always pat fish dry before marinating it or dipping it in any batter. It gives the fish a little crispness This Moroccan Salmon pairs so well with the cooling Raita, it’s a match made in heaven. My hubby and I absolutely love it. What I love most is that we can have dinner in just a few minutes. I hope you love it as much as we do. If you do try this recipe please drop me a comment and a star rating. It is always appreciated.
