1
Preheat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and evenly spread two tablespoons of vegetable oil.
2
Place the salmon fillets in the pan skin-side down. Cook each side for 6 minutes for optimal doneness. Avoid meddling with the salmon while it cooks to maintain its juiciness and prevent it from falling to pieces.
3
While the salmon is cooking, prepare the glaze. In a bowl, combine the water, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, and salt. Stir until the sugar and salt are fully dissolved.
4
Remove the salmon fillets once cooked and arrange them on a plate.
5
In the same pan, add two tablespoons of vegetable oil and lightly fry the julienned ginger until crisp. Add the julienned scallions and cook until wilted.
6
Pour the prepared soy sauce mixture into the pan. Let it boil then remove from heat.
7
To serve, plate the cooked rice, place a salmon fillet on top, and generously spoon the ginger and scallion mixture over. Pour some sauce on top, ensuring to saturate the salmon evenly. Finish by sprinkling fresh cilantro.

Enjoy warm for the best dining experience.
