Preparation

  1. Pat the salmon dry with kitchen paper. This way it will be extra crispy later.
  2. Make the marinade: mix honey, soy sauce, lemon juice, chili salt, sesame oil and garlic.

  3. Coat the salmon with the marinade and let soak for at least 5 minutes.

  4. Place the salmon in the airfryer. Preferably do this on baking paper or an airfryer mat, which will save washing up later.

  5. Meanwhile, prepare the rice or noodles according to the preparation instructions on the package.
  6. Bake 8-10 minutes at 180°C. Thin pieces? Check around 8 minutes. For large pieces, go more toward 10 minutes.

  7. Serve immediately with rice or noodles with any toppings such as, cucumber, spring onion, sesame seeds of your choice.

Tip: Want your salmon even crispier? Set the airfryer to 200°C for the last 1 minute.

Enjoy your meal!
