Salmon Fishcakes
Recipe by Mitch Forman
My Mom made these patties when we had left-over salmon for dinner. They are delicious served on a toasted English muffin but on Passover, we ate them with mustard mayonnaise.
Ingredients
700g salmon steaks poached and crushed
240 mls mayonnaise
2 lemons – (squeezed)
2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard
32g finely chopped spring onions
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 large eggs (beaten)
200g breadcrumbs, or almond flour for a wheat free substitute (Matzo meal is the traditional Jewish ingredient here)
60 mls olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon finely chopped capers
salt and pepper to taste
Recipe
Combine the salmon, half of the of mayonnaise, lemon juice, scallions, garlic powder, dill
Add the beaten eggs and mix well. Add the breadcrumbs/almond flour/matzo meal and mix well
Shape the mixture into 8 fishcakes
Heat the oil in a saute pan and cook the fishcakes for 3 minutes on each side until golden brown
Combine the remainder of the mayonnaise with the capers. Serve fishcakes drizzled with this as a caper sauce
