Thai flavoured salmon fillets, topped with crispy ritz crackers and served with basmati rice. I made this dish for GCSE: Food and Nutrition (Home Economics). Hey! I'm 14 years old and I love to cook with ambitions to becoming a chef when I grow up and to encourage me to practise my cooking more often I am attempting to invent new recipes and uploading them here.
