I would dial down the coriander seeds but otherwise great.
My whole family enjoyed this. I had a quantity of leftover basmati rice and wanted something Indian-inspired that fit the ingredients I had on hand. This fit the bill. I made the recipe as written, using (where the instructions were vague) whole coriander seeds, green cardamon, and fresh mint leaves from the garden. My only change was to use salmon instead of white fish as that’s what I had on hand. It was delicious and very mild, with no one flavor overpowering the others. We’ll make it again.
I would not recommend this recipe at all. While I like all of the spices normally, it is not a good combination in this case and made an awful taste on the fish. I tasted the mixture before putting it on the fish and didn't like it to start with. A waste of fish, unfortunately.
