Fried salmon

15 minutes

Fried salmon is an exquisite dish of Russian cuisine that captivates with its simplicity and rich flavor. This fish, a symbol of nobility, was a favorite treat at noble feasts. Its tender, juicy fillet, fried to a golden crust, gains a slight spiciness from black pepper and the subtle aroma of soy sauce. A few drops of fresh lemon juice highlight the natural sweetness of the salmon, adding freshness. This dish pairs perfectly with light sides like vegetables or mashed potatoes and will adorn any table—from family dinners to formal receptions.
