Thai Salmon Patties Recipes

SALMON PATTIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 220C/430F standard (200C fan)
• Place breadcrumbs in a bowl. Grate over onion, including juices. Mix onion into breadcrumbs, ensuring all breadcrumbs are soaked. (Note 3)
• Add remaining ingredients except salmon. Mix well.
• Add salmon. Stir through gently, leaving flakes of salmon (rather than vigorously mixing salmon into tiny pieces).
• Scoop up 1/4 cup mixture (level, packed standard ice cream scoop, see Video). Form round patties about 1.5 cm/ 2/3" thick and set aside.
• Drizzle oil all over tray. Place in oven for 2 minutes until hot - oil will spread over tray. Tilt tray to spread if needed.
• Place patties on tray - DO NOT press down (makes them stick on tray). Spray surface with oil spray.
• Bake 15 minutes. Flip, spray surface with oil spray, bake 5 minutes.
• Serve with sour cream or yoghurt on the side for dipping / dolloping, and extra fresh dill if desired.
• I served mine with cauliflower puree and Yoghurt Slaw - healthy side options! (Note 3)

QUICK ASIAN FISHCAKES

Steps:

• Whack the lemongrass against your work surface and remove the tough outer layer.

• Chop the salmon into 1cm chunks over the mix on your board, then push half the salmon to one side.
• Chop the rest until super-fine, almost like a purée, then mix the chunkier bits back through it and season with sea salt and black pepper.
• Divide into 4, then shape and squash into 2cm-thick patties.
• Place a large non-stick frying pan on a medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
• Cook the patties for 2 minutes on each side, or until nicely golden.
• Spoon the chilli jam over the fishcakes, add a splash of water to the pan, turn the heat off, and jiggle to coat.
• Serve sprinkled with the drained coriander.

• Divide the salmon mixture into four portions, and handle lightly to form four patties, each one about 4 inches in diameter. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, and add enough oil to lightly coat. Cook the patties on each side until lightly browned and just cooked through, 6 minutes total, then serve.

SIMPLE SALMON PATTIES RECIPE (HOW TO MAKE SALMON PATTIES)

Steps:

• First, remove the skin from your salmon and discard. Then, place salmon into a large bowl and use a spoon to break the salmon up into small shredded chunks.
• Next, add the breadcrumbs, bell pepper, white onion, parsley, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, paprika, egg, mayo, tabasco, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the bowl.
• Using a spoon or hands, mix all of the ingredients together until the ingredients stick together and form a ball. Form the salmon patties by using a 1/3 cup scoop and make 10-12 small balls out of the salmon mixture. After all the balls are formed, carefully make patties out of each ball by gently patting them down between your hands. Set them on a plate and repeat until all the patties are made.
• Next, heat a large skillet over medium/high heat. Add one tablespoon of olive oil to the pan. When the olive oil is fragrant, add 3-4 patties to the pan (if there is room) and cook them for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the salmon patties brown. Remove from heat. Add another tablespoon of olive oil and repeat until all the patties are cooked.
• Enjoy them alone, on top of a salad, or get creative!

SIMPLE THAI SALMON CAKES (GLUTEN FREE)

Steps:

• Place peas in a mixing bowl and roughly mash with a fork.
• Add salmon, sesame seeds and curry paste to the mashed peas and combine thoroughly. Whisk the eggs in a separate bowl, and then add them to the mix too and combine again.
• Sprinkle over the coconut flour then stir this in. If you are using the other seasoning ingredients listed (i.e. spring onion, ginger, turmeric and chilli) add them in now too.
• Using your hands, gently form the mixture into patties (I usually make 8 small patties) approximately 1 cm thick. If your mixture seems too wet to form into patties try adding a tiny bit more coconut flour, but go easy as the stuff is very absorbent.
• Heat a fry pan up to a medium heat and add a teaspoon of coconut oil. Cook the patties for approximately 4 minutes on each side, they should turn a nice golden brown.
• Serve with a crunchy raw salad and some steamed rice, and drizzle over some sesame oil, tahini and/or natural or coconut yoghurt if you like.

THAI SALMON FISH CAKES

Steps:

• Place the chilli, garlic, lemongrass, fish sauce, brown sugar, salt, cumin, spring onions/scallions, garlic and ginger in a food processor. Pulse until fairly well combined.
• Add the salmon and pulse again for a few seconds. Finally add in the coriander/cilantro and kaffir limes leaves and pulse until everything is mostly combined. It's good to leave a little texture and colour, so don't over pulse.
• Using a spoon, scoop out the fish mix and form in little balls in your hand - about the size of a walnut. Put on a plate, and place in the fridge for a few minutes to firm up a little whilst you prepare the vegetable ribbons and chilli dip.
• For the chilli dip, mix the sugar and lime juice until the sugar dissolves. Add in the fish sauce and the chopped chillies. Put to one side.
• For the vegetable ribbons, use a vegetable peeler remove the outer skin of the carrots. Then use your peeler to peel strips from both the carrot and the cucumber. You'll need to stop before you get to the seeds in the centre of the cucumber though, or you'll end up with some seriously squidgy ribbons on your hands.
• When you're ready to cook the fish cakes, heat the oil in a large skillet/frying pan, over a medium-high heat. When hot, add in the fish cake balls and squash down a little with a spatula/fish slice. Cook for about a minute to a minute-and-a-half on each side, until golden brown.
• Serve the fish cakes with the vegetable ribbons and drizzle with a bit of the chilli dip.
