Fresh salmon fillet in a crispy salt crust

Ingredients

Kitchen Stuff

1 roasting pan
1 baking paper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 200 ° C.
Line the bottom of the roasting pan with baking paper.
Mix the salt with the flour. Split the egg and add the protein with the water to the salt. Mix everything together. The egg yolk is not used.
Cut the dill coarse and cut the onion into rings.
Make a layer of 1 cm thick, slightly larger than the salmon fillet, in the roasting pan. Put the salmon on top, sprinkle with pepper, dill and onion.
Spread the rest of the salt mixture evenly over the salmon. Make sure that the salmon is completely covered and that the layer is equally thick everywhere.
Put the salmon in the middle of the oven and bake for about 20 minutes just until done.
Remove the salmon from the oven, break the salt crust with a knife and serve immediately. The salt crust is not eaten.
