1. Make a marinade using olive oil, garlic, and soy sauce combined in a non metal dish. Marinate for approximately 1 hour.
2. When the salmon has finished marinating, remove and place in a hot frying pan flesh side down for 30 seconds.
3. Flip over and fry with the lid on for about 3 minutes until the skin is crispy and the salmon is cooked to medium rare. Remove the salmon from the pan and place on a bed of parsnip & kumara wedges. Spoon the salsa over the salmon and serve accompanied with a fennel and citrus salad.
