Crusty, crisp, delicious and quite a different taste than other salmon, dishes. Pour oil into medium-size heavy frying pan over medium heat. Wash and trim onions and add to pan. Season salmon with salt and pepper and add to pan. Fry until crusty and cooked through (about 10 minutes depending on thickness) but not overdone. Check for doneness by inserting small knife in center; flesh will have changed from dark pink to pale pink. (Onions will have brownedQand will taste marvelous.) Sprinkle with dill, if used.
