Submitted by umeko

"Tip: To check for done-ness, stick a toothpick into the thickest part of the fish. If it goes in easily, the fish is cooked. Put onto serving plates and cover to keep warm."

• 1 teaspoon sea salt

directions

1. Rub in 1/4 of salt onto each piece of salmon. Leave aside in the fridge.

3. Heat 2 tbsps margarine in a non-stick flat pan over a medium fire. When hot, fry the salmon for about 15 seconds on each side.
