Potato Salmon Cakes

By ctozzi

Ingredients

• 2 large russet baking potatoes, washed and cut into large chunks
• 3 tablespoons canola oil
• 2 salmon filets, 6 oz each
• Salt and pepper
• 4 green onions, sliced thinly
• 1 bunch fresh dill, chopped
• 1 egg, lightly beaten

Preparation

Step 1

# Steam potatoes in a stovetop steamer until tender when pierced with a fork.
# Meanwhile heat a sauté pan over medium-high heat and when it's hot, add oil.
# Using a potato masher, mash them together.
# Season salmon filets and sear on both sides until just cooked through.
# Place the potatoes into a large bowl and add salmon, salt and pepper.
# Add green onions, dill and egg and mix well.
# Form into 4 large patties. If the mixture seems a bit loose and won't form a well-packed cake, add some breadcrumbs until it binds well.
# Heat a large skillet and add oil.
# Add salmon cakes and fry them until they are golden brown on each size and heated through.
