Ingredients

  • 2 (150–180g each) Salmon fillets, skin on, patted dry
  • 1 tsp Olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black pepper
  • 1/2 Lemon, cut into wedges

You’ll need: Air fryer

Method

  1. Heat the air fryer to 200°C. Rub the salmon with the oil, then season with the salt and pepper.

  2. Put the fillets skin-side down in the basket, not touching. No need to turn them.

  3. Cook for 8–12 minutes: thin fillets will be ready toward 8 minutes, thick ones need closer to 12. The salmon is cooked when it turns opaque and flakes easily with a fork at the thickest part.

  4. Serve with the lemon wedges.

Storage

Fridge up to 2 days. Reheat until piping hot, or flake cold into salads.
