Salmon Patties Recipe
This Salmon Patties Recipe is one of those canned salmon recipes which is a great standby for a family supper. | If your potatoes are mashed ahead of time, this makes a quick meal to assemble. You may adapt this to a Tuna Patties recipe. Alternatively, you can substitute with any white fish that you may have. The fish should be cooked in advance because this recipe relies on the fact that the patties are fried for a short time. You can use leftovers from the great salmon recipes below. |
EasyMakes about 12 pattiesPreparation time: 15 minutesFrying time: about 15 - 20 minutes
Ingredients: 10oz / 300g canned salmon or tuna1lb / 450g potatoes3 tablespoons fresh parsley , chopped3 tablespoons fresh coriander, chopped2 tablespoons capers, chopped (optional, but delicious)3 small gherkins, chopped2 tablespoon lemon juice½ teaspoon cayenne peppersalt and pepper to season2 eggs1 cup commercial breadcrumbsOil for shallow fryingMethod: - Peel the potatoes and cut them in half. Boil them until they are soft. Mash the potatoes (without adding milk or butter).
- In a large bowl, combine the tinned salmon or tuna, mashed potato, parsley, coriander, capers, gherkins, lemon juice and cayenne pepper. Season with salt and pepper. Add more cayenne pepper if you want spicier fish cakes.
- Shape the mixture into 12 patties.
- In a flattish bowl, beat the eggs with a fork. Place the breadcrumbs in another flattish bowl.
- Heat the oil over a low heat.
- Dip the fishcakes first in the egg and then in the breadcrumbs, making sure that they are well coated.
- Fry the Salmon Patties over a low heat for about 3 - 4 minutes on each side, turning them gently. Fry about 4 patties at a time. Drain on absorbent paper. I often find that I have to wipe the pan out between batches of fishcakes. Simply use absorbent kitchen paper, wipe the leftover burnt breadcrumbs out of the pan, and then add more oil and continue with the next batch.
- Serve this Salmon Patties Recipe with Tzatziki Sauce and a big salad.
