w52.15.1: Tandoori Salmon

Read that as tandoori marinated salmon…

It’s been quite some time now since my last foodie related shot for my w52 project. I really like spending time on foodie themed shot(s), but it takes some time setting up the food/subject for the shoot and by the time I got it all setup and ready to shoot, someone is already hungry at home 🙂

Overall I am a tad bit satisfied with this shot – with 60mm macro, this shot ended up as a macro..may be next time I have to stick to my 50mm prime for foodie shot(s).

    Now this is just unfair to show someone who hasn’t had dinner yet 🙂 Excellent shot, I don’t think I know anyone who can make food look this appetizing on screen.

      Here is the recipe for Tandoori Salmon

      We tried multiple tanddori masalas and finally settled with Periyar Tandoori Masala (http://www.periyar.com/tandoori-masala) – less in sodium, and the ingredients are pronounceable 😉 Further no MSG.

      Anyway make the marinade as suggested – my wife mentioned omitting yogurt for this recipe. Apply marinade to the fish and refrigerate for about an hour. When the grill is ready, spray the grill with non-stick spray and grill non-skin side down for about 6 minutes (depends on the thickness of the fillet) and gently turn it and grill it on the skin side for about 3 minutes.

      Enjoy!!

    I am not much of a Salmon person but man, this sure makes me want to try a piece! Sorry I’ve been away from commenting, hopefully this week I’ll be able to catch up. 😀

    Looks like it was worth the work. Very nice foodie shot and personally, I like the macro perspective. It shows off the tasty details and texture of the salmon. Makes me want to have salmon for dinner. 🙂
