The Perfect Salmon Pan Fry
Heat a deep heavy based pan or grill plate on the stove top for 2 mins on a medium heat. Add oil or oil and butter mix. Do not use butter on its own as it will burn too easily (oil and butter are mixed together to add flavour). Rub sea salt and a little oil into the salmon skin. This will allow the skin to become crispy. Cook skin side down for 3 mins then turn over and cook for 3 minutes. Rest the salmon for 2 minutes before serving, as the salmon will continue to cook.
To pan fry cutlets brush a hot pan or grill plate with a little oil and cook for 4-6 mins each side (for well cooked salmon cook for 6 minutes). Remove from heat and allow salmon to cool for 2 mins.

Method

2. Add the remaining oil to the pan and sauté the scallops for 3 -4 minutes, remove & keep warm.
