Pat salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt.
Heat vegetable oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Place salmon fillet skin-side down (if applicable) and cook for 4 minutes until crispy.
Flip salmon fillet and cook for another 3 minutes, or until cooked through.
Remove salmon fillet from pan. Let it cool slightly, then remove skin (if desired) and bones. Flake the salmon meat with a fork.
In the same pan (or a clean one), combine flaked salmon, sake, soy sauce, and mirin. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring gently, until the liquid has mostly evaporated and the salmon flakes are well-coated and slightly dry, about 4 minutes.
In a large bowl, gently mix the seasoned salmon flakes with the hot cooked rice.
Serve immediately, garnished with toasted white sesame seeds and shredded nori (if using).
