A Delicious and Easy Seafood Dinner
Salmon cakes are a delightful dish that feature flaked salmon mixed with breadcrumbs, herbs, and spices, then pan-fried or baked until golden brown and crispy. They're a versatile and satisfying meal that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or even as an appetizer.
Here's a classic salmon cakes recipe that you can easily customize to your preferences:
Ingredients:
1-pound skinless salmon fillet.
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs.
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley.
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill.
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard.
1 tablespoon lemon juice.
1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning.
1/4 teaspoon salt.
1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
1 large egg, beaten.
2 tablespoons vegetable oil.
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
If using fresh salmon, cut it into 1-inch pieces. Alternatively, you can use canned salmon, drained and flaked.
In a large bowl, combine the salmon, breadcrumbs, parsley, dill, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
Add the beaten egg and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the cakes tough.
Form the mixture into 6-8 patties.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the salmon cakes and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Alternatively, you can bake the salmon cakes for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked through.
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tartar sauce, remoulade, or aioli.
Tips:
For a lighter version, you can bake the salmon cakes instead of pan-frying them.
You can add other ingredients to the salmon cake mixture, such as chopped vegetables, grated cheese, or hot sauce.
Serve the salmon cakes with a side of salad, roasted vegetables, or rice.
Additional recipe variations:
Spicy Salmon Cakes: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the mixture for a kick of heat.
Mediterranean Salmon Cakes: Add chopped sun-dried tomatoes, Kalamata olives, and feta cheese to the mixture.
Asian Salmon Cakes: Add a tablespoon of soy sauce, a teaspoon of grated ginger, and a teaspoon of honey to the mixture.
