Pan fried SUPER CRISPY skin and moist salmon fillet

Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Pinch of salt on the salmon. Add a drizzle of olive oil in a non-sticky pan. Heat on medium ~5 until the oil starts to make tiny bubbles
* Step 2
Add the salmon with skin side down. Keeping the heat on medium (level 4 out of 9 on my hob) and set a timer for 6 minutes. Press gently with a spatula on the salmon.
* Step 3
Don’t move the salmon. Let it sizzle, making sure that the oil is not burning (so don’t turn the heat up) and move the pan in circular motions to distribute the hot oil around the edges and all around the salmon
* Step 4
Don’t keep checking if the skin is crispy every few seconds! Touching it too much will ruin the fish.
* Step 5
Six minutes later, you can see from the edges that almost 3/4 of the salmon is cooked. flip the salmon with flesh side down to cook for another ~1minute. The skin should be crispy. With a spatula, start pressing the salmon gently to make sure the whole surface touches the pan. And focus on the thick middle part. Take it off the heat for a few seconds if you feel the oil is too hot at this point and keep pressing gently and return to the heat.
* Step 6
Flip to the sides and cook for 10 seconds each. Turn again skin side down and cook for 10-15seconds before serving to make sure the skin remains hot and crispy at its best. Don’t let it cool down, it’ll get soggy.
