Step one

Combine marinade ingredients and pour over salmon.
Step two

Cover & refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Step three

Drain excess liquid from salmon steaks and roll each one in sesame seeds.
Step four

In a small amount of oil, fry fish in a non-stick pan for 5-6 minutes on each side. While the salmon is cooking, add marinade to pan to use as sauce. Do not overcook; the flesh should remain tender.
Step five
