However, avoid using too much seasoning so as not to overpower the salmon's natural flavor. Wash the lemon, dry it, and squeeze the juice. Pour the juice over the fish and let it marinate for 30–40 minutes. You can also add a sprig of thyme.

The fish in the pan is already half-cooked, so it's time to add the sauce. Sprinkle a pinch of curry powder and ground pepper on top, if desired. Carefully stir, bring to a boil, and simmer for just 2–3 minutes.
