Salmon Kajipu / Salmon curry (Mangalorean Fish curry)

 Salmon Kajipu (Mangalorean Fish Curry)

This flavourful curry is generally made with Bangude, however,  Salmon tastes great too !(specially when you are away from home and have no access to fresh Bangude). 

This is a NO OIL recipe and Kajipu goes great with boiled rice and makes for a very tasty and healthy meal!
