👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Cover the bottom of a baking tray with baking paper and brush the surface lightly with oil.
2. 2Sprinkle the sesame seeds onto a flat working surface. Turn the salmon fillets skin-side up and roll the flesh side in the seeds. Now place the fillets skin-side down on the baking paper. Squeeze the lemon juice over the fish and season with salt. Place in the oven and bake for about 10 minutes, until a milky liquid runs out. Remove from the oven and serve immediately or at room temperature.
