果阿是印度的一个海滨城市，也是印度最小的邦。面向阿拉伯海的这个城市有着非常漂亮的沙滩。它曾经被葡萄牙占领过，所以有很多葡萄牙式的建筑物和饮食，许多当地人仍然口操流利的葡萄牙语呢！

海鲜是果阿家常菜里不可或缺的食材，果阿也是印度除了West Bengal和Kerala之外把海鲜当主要食材的州属。

对于来自东南亚的我来说，由于果阿菜的材料和东南亚菜很接近，所以口感和味道也比较容易接受。

Goa is the smallest state located in the South West of India. Its culture is  a mix of east and west due to the Portuguese ruling in the 1500s. The eastern influence is not just in the culture of the state, it also shows its footage in the cuisines. Seafood is the main cooking ingredients there, as well as a major source of protein.

As I grew up eating seafood, Goan dishes was one of the very first Indian dishes that I liked, and still do!

400-450 克的 三文鱼（或任何鱼类）切块或切片

1/2 只 洋葱
1 只 番茄
3-4 只 辣椒干
3-4 瓣 蒜
1/2 寸 姜
