(4-6 people)

4-6 steaks of salmon (180 g each), skinned and boned
1 egg white
salt, pepper
0.5 dl sesame seeds
2 tbsp sesame oil
oil for frying

Method:
Whip the whites lightly, roll the salmon steaks in them and sprinkle the sesame seeds over. Heat the pan well, pour in the sesame oil and the cooking oil, and fry the salmon at medium heat (skin-side facing upwards) until golden. Remove the fish from the pan and put into a 100°C oven for 10 minutes. It’s a good idea to make the sauce and the side dish before frying the salmon.
