This recipe is a must-try for any seafood lover. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the yogurt sauce is absolutely divine. I highly recommend serving it with a side of roasted vegetables.

The salmon was a bit dry, but the yogurt sauce helped save the dish. I think I'll try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.

Not a fan of salmon, but this recipe changed my mind! The spice crust was flavorful and the yogurt sauce was creamy and tangy. Definitely worth trying, even if you're not a salmon lover.

The spice crust was a bit too overpowering for my taste, but the salmon itself was cooked perfectly. The yogurt sauce helped balance out the flavors a bit, but overall I found the dish to be just okay.
