Good simple meals need not be expensive. I paid about £3 for two freshly gutted salmon fish heads.
I have used up a head for soup and saving another for a different day.
The fins are reserved for cooking two different dishes. All in all for £3 it will yield four meals.
What more can I ask for except to cook it for myself.
Fins and the belly are my favourite parts of a fish.
Without much ado, this is how I cook for myself to enjoy.
Ingredients
1. Two pieces of salmon fins
2. Salt
3. Pepper
Method
1. Wash and pat dry fish. It is important to ensure crispier skin.
2. Rub with good quality salt if possible. For this dish, the only type I have in the larder was ordinary table salt. It tasted just as yummy.
3. Season with freshly ground pepper or white pepper.
4. It is important fish is cooked at room temperature.
5. Crumble aluminium oil and place on a rack. It makes cleaning up easier.
Place fins on top of aluminium foil without overlapping.
6. Switch grill to medium. You may need to turn the fins around during the cooking process.
7. Grill till desired liking. It took me about six minutes.

Salmon is an oily fish thus IMO, it is not necessary to brush over with oil.
You can literally hear the skin 'popping' as it's grilling.
I want to taste real fish thus find it unnecessary to complicate on the seasoning.
Thinking about mum and my best friend back in Singapore as I am enjoying it.

I do pan fry sometimes when the grill is not available.
