Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 4X120g/4 oz salmon fillets
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 lemon, juice and zest
  • cooking spray
  • 125g/1/2 cup mayonnaise can use low fat
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp chopped dill

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400F/200C. While it's preheating, season the salmon with salt and pepper and sprinkle the zest of half a lemon all over.
  • Once the air fryer is preheated, arrange the salmon in the basket of the air fryer and spray it with a cooking spray. (If you choose to use oil instead of the spray, brush the salmon with 1 tsp of olive oil, then season with salt, pepper and lemon zest.) Cook for 8 minutes.
  • While the salmon is cooking, in a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the zest and juice of ½ lemon, mustard and chopped dill to make the sauce.
