How To Make Fresh Salmon Cakes

Bored of having the same old meat cake? Why not switch things up by using minced fish instead of ground meat? It would give your dish a whole new spin that’s equally delicious! Not to mention, fish is packed with healthy fatty acids. So if you’ve got some in your freezer, you can try whipping up either of these easy fish cake recipes. Stir the flakes together with classic spice blends, or explore flavors from different cuisines. You’ll have plenty of options to choose from!

Serves:

Ingredients

1 lb fresh salmon, cooked and flaked
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 green onions, finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine the cooked and flaked salmon, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, green onions, parsley, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Using your hands, shape the mixture into small patties, about 1/4-cup in size.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the salmon cakes for about 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and heated through.
Serve hot with a side of tartar sauce or lemon wedges.
