Salmon Fish Cakes Food

FISH CAKES

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes, cut into 2cm chunks, and cook in boiling salted water for 10 minutes (or use baked potatoes - scoop out the potato and discard the skin).
• Rub the salmon fillet all over with 1 teaspoon of oil and a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, then place in a colander and cover with tin foil.
• When the time's up on the potatoes, place colander directly over the pan of boiling potatoes. Turn the heat down to medium-low and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the salmon and potatoes are both cooked through.
• Meanwhile, pick and finely chop the parsley leaves, discarding the stalks.
• Once cooked, remove the fish from the colander to a plate, and discard the skin. Drain the potatoes, and leave to steam dry for 1 minute, then tip back into the pan.
• Mash the potatoes, spreading the mash round the sides of the pan to help it cool down quickly. When the potatoes are cooled, transfer to a bowl.
• Flake the salmon into the bowl, add 1 tablespoon of flour, the chopped parsley and a really good pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Finely grate over the lemon zest, then mash and mix together really well.
• Dust a plate with a little flour. Divide the mixture into 4, then lightly shape and pat into circles about 2cm thick, dusting them with flour as you go. Put them onto a clean plate also dusted with a little flour. If you're going to freeze them, wrap them in clingfilm at this point and put them into the freezer. Otherwise simply pop them into the fridge for an hour before cooking - this will allow them to firm up slightly.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat, add the fishcakes and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until crisp and golden - you may need to work in batches.
• Serve straight away, with veg or salad and lemon wedges for squeezing over.

SALMON CAKES

Steps:

• Use a food processor to pulse the salmon into small pieces. The salmon should still have small chunks, not be pulsed into a puree.
• Using a nonstick skillet, heat 1/2 - 1 Tablespoon of oil, add the onion, season with salt and pepper and cook until tender and lightly golden. Cool slightly. Wipe out the skillet and set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the salmon, cooked onion, egg, mayonnaise, capers, lemon juice, mustard, hot sauce, parsley, 4 Tablespoons of breadcrumbs, salt and pepper in a large bowl and mix to combine.
• Using an ice cream scoop (or your hands, of course), portion out the salmon into 2-3 inch circles. You will have 14-16 salmon cakes, depending on how big you make them.
• Dredge the salmon cakes in the breadcrumbs.
• Heat about 1 1/ 2 tablespoons oil in a nonstick skillet on medium-high heat and cook the salmon for about 3 minutes per side, just until golden brown. The fish cooks very quickly, so don't overcook it by using low heat or covering the skillet, etc. It will be dry, if you're not careful.
• Take the salmon cakes off the heat and drain on a paper towel. Wipe out the skillet and repeat with the rest of the salmon cakes.
• Serve hot or warm. Store leftover salmon in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3-5 days.
