How should we define salmon? I define it as a quick fix for something special. Not only that it is even good when someone comes over. There are different terms for this fish, some call it Salmon, and others call it Mackerel. Not only that there are even people who call it tinned fish. So today what I am going to teach you is how to make this dish quickly and easily. When you make this Tempered Mackerel dish, you can enjoy it with anything you want like rice, bread, and even roti. I think everyone has eaten this dish, especially a combo with Dhal and Coconut symbol. That combo is divine.

Mackerel Fish/ Canned Fish

For us, Sri Lankans Tempered Mackerel/ Salmon means a quick dish that we can make during busy hours and we mainly cook this dish in three ways, and they are with mild coconut milk, Spicy curry, and Tempered. So today I am going to show you how to Tempered this Salmon.

This recipe will be useful for not only the people in Sri Lanka but also for the people who are abroad. I am telling that because it is really hard to find fresh fish in many foreign countries. So because of that, most of us are used to making this Tinned mackerel fish. But, I always recommend you eat fresh fish because of all the nutrients that you can get from fresh fish.

What do you know about Mackerel Fish?
The thing is, whenever we think of Salmon, the first thing that comes to our mind is that it is not that good for your body, but in my opinion, this is fish and fish is always good for your body. Today I bought you the Tempered Mackerel Fish recipe. But if you think that this is bad for your body, you can add a lot of herbs like curry leaves and spices to this dish when you are making it and also if you are using coconut milk when cooking this, it will balance out the curry and will preserve all the nutrients in that fish. I should note that some people cannot eat prawns, cuttlefish, or Salmon and they sometimes have allergic reactions. If that is the case, do not add any tomatoes if you have those kinds of reactions to Salmon. If it is possible add some Fenugreek seeds and cook this fish using coconut milk. Trust me, the taste will be divine.
