For a richer flavor, try using Japanese mayonnaise (Kewpie) in the Bang Bang sauce. Adjust the amount of Sriracha to control the level of spiciness. Ensure the salmon fillets are of similar thickness for even cooking. To prevent sticking, preheat your air fryer properly. If you don't have an air fryer, you can bake the salmon in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through.
