Instructions
Preheat the oven or air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
While the appliance heats, let the 1 lb skinless salmon fillets come to room temperature (about 15–20 minutes).
In a small bowl, stir together 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon wasabi, and ½ teaspoon soy sauce until smooth.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and place them skin-side down (they are skinless) on a plate or cutting board.
Spread the mayonnaise–wasabi mixture evenly over the top of each fillet.
Sprinkle 3 tablespoons furikake evenly over the coated fillets.
For oven cooking: line a baking sheet with parchment paper, arrange the fillets on the sheet, and bake on the middle rack at 400°F (200°C) for 6–8 minutes for four thin fillets or 8–10 minutes for two thick fillets, until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily.
For air-fryer cooking: line the air-fryer basket with a square of parchment paper or a liner, place the fillets in the basket with space between them, and cook at 400°F (200°C) for 6–8 minutes for four thin fillets or 8–10 minutes for two thick fillets, until opaque and flaky.
Remove the salmon and let it rest 2–3 minutes before serving.

Notes
The recipe calls for 1lb/460g of salmon. You can use 4 thin pieces or 2 thick pieces.
I like to use kewpie mayo for this recipe but use your favorite brand. Please don't use a low-fat or fat-reduced alternative, as they don't cook well.
