Intro
0:02
music to my ears if you tend to shy away
0:05
from buying Seafood because you're not
0:06
confident in cooking it don't fear I'm
0:08
going to give you some tips to show you
0:10
how to cook salmon perfect two ways both
0:13
pan fried and oven roasted and always
0:15
with wonderful crispy skin whether it's
0:17
salmon or maybe you like white fish like
0:19
this beautiful baramundi cook it with a
0:21
skin on follow this same technique and I
0:23
guarantee you it will come out wonderful
0:25
every single time now if you open your
0:27
salmon and it's it's really moist just
0:30
grab yourself a little bit of paper
0:32
towel and just dab it like this dry skin
0:35
is really important just grab a sharp
0:37
knife pinch it together make a small
0:39
incision straight through that skin you
0:41
don't need to cut too deep into the
0:43
salmon you're just opening it up that's
0:45
going to allow the skin to get even
0:47
crisper then you season it nothing new
0:49
so far but I do have a trick coming up
0:51
so get ready season the other side now I
0:54
know what you're thinking preheat your
0:56
pan right get a nice hot pan no if this
0:59
was the pan and it was red hot and you
1:01
put your salmon in guess what happens it
1:03
goes like
1:05
this and then you're left with this big
1:07
pocket of skin that doesn't get crisp
1:09
what we're doing is starting it in a
1:11
cold pan we're going to bring that heat
1:13
up quickly but that Salmon's going to
1:15
relax into the pan which means that skin
1:18
is going to have full contact and it's
1:19
going to get super crispy a good
1:21
non-stick pan is super helpful tiny bit
1:24
of oil and then you pick up the salmon
1:26
move it around spreading that little bit
1:28
of oil in the bottom of the pan take it
1:30
over to your stove stick it on high and
1:32
it'll take about 2 minutes before you
1:34
hear it Sizzle in and then 5 minutes
1:36
before you've got that skin perfectly
1:38
crisp you can literally hear it start to
1:40
sizzle notice how much fat there is in
1:42
the pan right now and then have a look
1:44
back in a few minutes and you'll see
1:46
quite a bit of that fat will render out
1:48
of the salmon as it Cooks I know the
1:49
Temptation right you hear that you're
1:51
wondering what's happening underneath
1:53
and you think do I get my Turner do I
1:55
have a little Peak just be confident
1:57
once it starts sizzling you've probably
1:59
got a good 3 minutes before it's get
2:01
into that deep golden brown so the less
2:04
you mess with it the better now you can
2:06
see some of that fat rendering out of
2:07
the salmon wonderful it's been about 5
2:10
minutes total since it's been in the pan
2:12
that is exactly what you're looking
2:15
for now if you're going to oven roast
2:17
the salmon you just remove it from the
2:19
pan stick it onto a little tray like
2:21
this and then it goes back in the oven
2:22
for about 3 minutes that's all it needs
2:25
and it'll be cooked all the way through
2:26
and you'll keep that perfect crispy skin
2:32
you remove the pan from the heat you go
2:35
ahead and dress whatever it is that you
2:37
want to serve with it some salad some
2:39
veggies you serve it with a little wedge
2:41
of lemon or two crispy skin perfectly
2:45
cooked salmon it doesn't get any better
2:46
but my mouth watering so I'm sorry I'm
2:48
