Irish Salmon Cakes Recipes

EASY, STEP BY STEP POTATO AND SALMON FISH CAKES

Steps:

• Put the mashed potatoes, salmon, egg, salt, pepper and parsley together in a bowl.
• Mix all the ingredients together using a fork to break up the fish, then form into patties (if the mixture is too soft, refrigerate for an hour or so before shaping).
• Dip patties into beaten egg, then coat in the breadcrumbs.
• Place on a baking sheet, and continue until the remaining mixture is finished.
• Fry gently over medium heat until golden brown on both sides, adding oil as needed.
• Place on paper-towel lined sheet to absorb the excess oil. Serve as desired.

SALMON CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place fish on a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Roast until cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely; pat dry with paper towels. Break salmon into smaller pieces; flake with a fork.
• In a large bowl, combine scallions, breadcrumbs, and parsley. Add mayonnaise, mustard, eggs, lemon juice, and salmon. Season again with salt and pepper, plus an additional flavoring if desired. Mix gently until ingredients just hold together.
• Form mixture into 8 patties (each about 3 inches wide). Place on a foil-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate until cold and firm, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Make Lemon-Herb Sauce: Whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, fresh lemon juice, and chopped herbs. Season with coarse salt and ground pepper.
• Heat broiler. Broil patties until lightly golden on top (without turning), 6 to 8 minutes. Serve with Lemon-Herb Sauce.
