ShowMeTheCurry notes: This dish sounds wonderful. Thank you, Irene, for sharing and giving a whole new international dimension to ShowMeTheCurry.com
Recipe worked perfectly, my first time smoking salmon (pinks). I modified the procedure a bit since my pellet grill has a minimum temperature of 180: I first cold-smoked for one hour using a smoker tube in the cold grill.
Perfect smoked salmon! I’ve been making smoked salmon all summer and this recipe is the best yet. It tastes like the salmon my grandpa used to make. Thanks Hank! ?

I have tried this recipe(Burmese Fish Sibyan) with basa.Works and tastes great.And yes ,cucumber raita is an absolute must with it.

First found this lovely recipe on Chow.com. I served it with plain basmati rice and a cucumber raita (with a hint of mint). My guests were delighted.
Interesting recipe, will give it a go.
