Fried salmon with cauliflower - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can use frozen salmon. Just make sure to thaw it completely in the refrigerator before cooking to ensure it cooks evenly and doesn't release too much water, which could prevent proper browning.
Broccoli, broccolini, or even asparagus would make a great substitute. Steam or roast them just until tender-crisp to maintain a nice texture that pairs well with the salmon.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over medium heat to maintain the best texture of the salmon and vegetables.
While it's best served fresh, you can prep components ahead. Blanch the cauliflower and store it separately. Cook the salmon just before serving to maintain its texture and flavor. Assemble the plates with the cold cauliflower and hot salmon when ready to serve.
Yes, this recipe is naturally gluten-free. Just ensure all your ingredients, like the vegetable oil and any pre-made spice blends you might use, are certified gluten-free if that's a concern.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the salmon while it's cooking. You could also season the cauliflower with a little cayenne pepper after blanching for an extra kick.
Yes, this method works well with other firm, fatty fish like tuna or swordfish steaks. Adjust cooking times as needed since thickness can vary. Thinner fillets, like cod or tilapia, would cook much faster and might not hold up as well to pan-frying without breaking.
