Instructions
Wash and lay salmon fillet on an aluminum foil in an oven safe dish. Rub some lime juice over it and wait 5 minutes (this helps get rid of some of the fish smell).
Cut onions, cilantro. Add chili powder, garam masala, ginger garlic paste, ajwain seeds, turmeric, salt, saffron and olive oil in a bowl and mix well.
With a spoon or spatula, spread paste evenly over the salmon (on all sides except bottom) and sprinkle cilantro and onion over it evenly. Cover the dish and refrigerate for about an hour.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Set tray in the oven and bake for 15 minutes (with the foil covered). Turn oven to broil (high) and leave it to broil for 3 minutes.
