Prepare Salmon Fillet
Remove the skin from the fish fillet.
I will show you how to skin the salmon fillet step by step in another cooking school article.
Rinse the fish under cold water and pat dry.
Season each fish with a pinch of salt and some freshly ground pepper (black or white).
Fry fish fillet
Heat the rapeseed oil in the pan.
Place the salmon fillets in the pan and reduce the temperature slightly.
Depending on the thickness of the fish fillets, fry the salmon for about 3 minutes on each side.
Prepare onions
Peel and halve the red onion and cut into strips.
Fry the onion strips in oil.
Prepare Zucchini
Wash the zucchini.
Cut off the ends.
Cut the zucchini into quarters and remove the seeds.
Add the zucchini to the onions in the pan. Season with salt and pepper.
Add unsalted cashew nuts.
Arrange and serve
Place the vegetables in the middle of preheated plates.
Place the freshly fried fish on top and serve.

4. Prepare Salmon Fillet for Salmon with Vegetables
My salmon preparation:
I rinse the salmon briefly under clear water before roasting.
Then I dab the salmon dry with a kitchen roll.
If you have bought a fish fillet with skin, you should remove the skin with a sharp knife.
To do this, place the fillet with the skin side down on your kitchen board and cut out the fish fillet close to the skin.
Just before preparation, please do not forget to add salt and pepper. The use of lemon juice is optional.
It is not necessary for hygienic reasons like 100 years ago.
But I personally like the taste of lemon and therefore add some splashes directly from the fresh lemon.

5. Prepare Variants for Salmon
After my salmon is perfectly prepared, I can consider the cooking method.
For this dish there are two variations:
5.1 Frying Salmon in a Pan
One way to cook my fish filet is to fry it in a pan.
For this I use a little sunflower oil or olive oil – it works without oil in a coated pan – and fry the salmon for 2-3 minutes on each side.
So this variant is fast.
For the vegetables I would use another pan separately.
5.2 Prepare Salmon in the Oven
Another possibility is preparation in the oven.
For this I have to preheat my oven at 100°C.
I put my fish in the oven mould after 15 minutes of preheating time and reduce the temperature to 80-90° C.
The fish can now remain in the oven for about 10 minutes.
This variant takes a little longer (preheating time!), but I can cook the fish in the oven parallel to the vegetables in the pan.
6. Prepare Vegetables
My vegetable preparation:
I peel and halve red onions. Then I cut them into strips and fry them.
I wash the zucchini and cut off the ends. Then I quarter them lengthwise.
Often I also remove the inside, the seeds. Then I cut the quarters into nice pieces and put them into the pan.
Now I season with pepper and salt and add the cashew nuts.
