Notes
- If you don't have an air fryer, you can also cook these salmon bites in the oven at 200 degrees Celsius (390 Fahrenheit) for 10-12 minutes, there is no need to turn the bites over during cooking.
- Alternatively, you can also pan-fry them over a medium heat, just make sure they go in a large enough frying pan so that they are in a single layer. They can break easily, so best to just shake the pan gently to ensure they cook on all sides.
