There were couple fillets of Salmon sitting in the freezer. Hadn't particularly planned what I would do with them.The taste of the 'Chicken Tandoori' and 'Shrimp fry' that we cooked at the Cottage for the New Years Eve was still lingering in the mouth.
TADAHHHH.....came into being these Sizzling Hot- Spicy-mouthwatering ..bite size Salmon tikkas!
I used Salmon for this recipe...but I guess any fish would work just fine. The Salmon fillets worked perfect for cutting into bite size chunks.

1tsp toasted sesame seeds
1/2 tsp Cumin powder
1/2tsp Garlic paste
1/4tsp oil
salt

1) Cut the onion into rings. Cut the Salmon into chunks
