Making Salmon Patties

The combination for the Salmon Patties is fairly straight ahead. I begin with my normal trick to make additional tender, additional tasty patties / meatballs – grating onion over breadcrumbs. This serves two functions –

1. the onion juices soaks the breadcrumbs which then broaden whereas cooking, creating little air pockets which makes the patties extra tender; and

2. avoids the necessity to precook the onion, which you must do when you use chopped onion in any other case you find yourself with uncooked bits of onion within the patties.

Then toss in egg to bind it, parmesan for umami (meals nerd phrase for savouriness, the fifth style sensation), shallots / inexperienced onions / scallions (international meals language inconsistencies = 🤯), garlic, dill (or different herb, dried or contemporary) and canned salmon.

Give it a mixture, and that is what you find yourself with. I do know the combination seems to be free and also you marvel how on earth the patties will maintain collectively, however they do, they actually do.

The egg on this recipe retains the salmon patties from falling aside whereas cooking. Additionally, as a result of these are baked moderately than pan fried, they’re dealt with much less so this additionally helps.

I’ve by no means had Salmon Patties collapse on me.

• 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs (Note 1 for subs)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 220C/430F standard (200C fan)
2. Place breadcrumbs in a bowl. Grate over onion, including juices. Mix onion into breadcrumbs, ensuring all breadcrumbs are soaked. (Note 3)
3. Add remaining ingredients except salmon. Mix well.
4. Add salmon. Stir through gently, leaving flakes of salmon (rather than vigorously mixing salmon into tiny pieces).
5. 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.
6. Drizzle oil all over tray. Place in oven for 2 minutes until hot – oil will spread over tray. Tilt tray to spread if needed.

9. Serve with sour cream or yoghurt on the side for dipping / dolloping, and extra fresh dill if desired.
10. I served mine with cauliflower puree and Yoghurt Slaw – healthy side options! (Note 3)

Notes

1. Panko breadcrumbs are Japanese breadcrumbs that are larger than ordinary breadcrumbs so they make these patties fluffier inside. They’re readily available nowadays in most supermarkets, in either the Asian section or alongside normal breadcrumbs. 
Subs:
Low carb – 1 cup of raw cauliflower rice
Guten free – 1 cup crushed rice crackers or almond meal in place of the breadcrumbs.
Use in place of the breadcrumbs and do not change anything else in the recipe. I’ve tried all these and the patties still taste amazing!
2. SALMON: There are two types of canned salmon – pink and red. Red Salmon is more expensive and it has a more intense flavour than pink salmon. I use red salmon in springwater but oil is also fine – drain before use.
I use the entire salmon in the can – skin and bones. The bones are super soft, not even noticeable in these patties.
FRESH salmon, use 500g/1 lb, sprinkle with salt, pepper and drizzle with oil. Bake at 180C/350F for 20 minutes or until just cooked (or cook on stove), then flake and proceed with recipe.
Alternatives: tuna, sardines or any other canned fish. Just follow the recipe as is – key is to fold the fish in at the end so you end up with chunks and keeps the patties fluffy, rather than disintegrating into the mixture (which also makes them hard).
3. GRATED ONION – soaking breadcrumbs with grated onion is a technique I use in most meatball/patty shaped things that makes them tastier and softer inside.
4. CAULIFLOWER PUREE: Cauliflower Mash with Browned Butter: Boil cauliflower florets in loads of water for 5 – 8 minutes until soft, then drain and leave to steam dry a bit. Whizz florets with a bit of milk (or cream!) and butter until desired consistency achieved – I made mine like a puree. Season with salt and pepper. For browned butter, melt 50g / 1/4 cup butter in a silver or white saucepan over medium high heat, it will foam then turn brown and suddenly smelly nutty. Take it off the stove immediately, pour into a bowl, leaving behind the black bits on the bottom. Drizzle about 1/2 – 1 tsp on each serving of cauliflower mash.
YOGHURT SLAW: Finely slice cabbage, carrot and red onion, For dressing, mix plain yoghurt, lemon juice, bit of olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Toss salad in dressing.
