CRAB CAKES WITH DILL MAYONNAISE



Crab cakes with dill mayonnaise image

Little fish favourites, perfect for dipping at parties or as a smart starter

Provided by James Martin

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Main course, Supper

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

250g potatoes , diced
300g white crabmeat
1 tbsp capers , drained and finely chopped
2 spring onions , finely chopped
zest and juice 1 lemon , plus extra wedges to serve
small bunch dill , finely chopped
4 tbsp good-quality mayonnaise
2 tbsp plain flour
1 egg , lightly beaten
85g dried breadcrumbs
sunflower oil , for shallow frying

Steps:

  • Boil the potatoes in a large pan of salted water for about 15 mins, drain, then return to the pan and leave to steam dry for about 5 mins. Mash, then leave to cool.
  • In a large bowl mix the crabmeat, capers, spring onions, lemon zest and half the juice with half the dill. Stir in the mashed potato with some seasoning, then shape into 12 neat round patties. Transfer these to a plate and put in the fridge for 20 mins to firm up.
  • To make the dill mayonnaise, mix the mayo with the remaining lemon juice and dill. Put this in the fridge for later.
  • Put the flour, egg and breadcrumbs on 3 separate plates. Dust the crab cakes all over with the flour, then dip into the egg and finally coat with breadcrumbs.
  • Add enough sunflower oil to a shallow frying pan to come about 1cm up the side. Heat the oil, then carefully slide the crab cakes in; you might have to do this in batches. Cook for about 3 mins on each side until they are crisp and golden. Drain on kitchen paper. At this point you can pop the crab cakes into the oven to keep warm - or serve right away with dill mayonnaise and extra lemon wedges.

VEGAN TURKISH KEBABS WITH SUMAC ONIONS AND GARLIC-DILL MAYONNAISE



Vegan Turkish Kebabs With Sumac Onions and Garlic-Dill Mayonnaise image

These vegan ground meat kebabs are inspired by Turkish street food. The kebabs themselves can be served on their own with the garlic-dill mayonnaise, or made into wraps, or tucked into Turkish bread or pita for sandwiches, with garlic-dill mayonnaise, sumac onions and tomatoes.

Categories     dinner, weekday, skewers and kebabs, main course

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 medium red onion, halved lengthwise, then thinly sliced
1 cup loosely packed fresh parsley leaves
1 tablespoon ground sumac
20 garlic cloves, peeled and ends trimmed
1 cup vegan mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Large handful of minced fresh dill leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound vegan ground meat, such as Impossible or Beyond
1 tablespoon minced fresh oregano leaves
3 medium garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons Urfa pepper, or 1 teaspoon ground ancho chile
1 1/2 teaspoons ground sumac
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon neutral oil, such as grapeseed or canola
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup arugula
Hot sauce, to taste
Vegan Turkish bread or pita

Steps:

  • Make the sumac onions: Combine all ingredients and toss until the onion pieces are separated and well coated. (You should have about 1 1/2 cups. Sumac onions should be used the day they are made.)
  • Make the garlic-dill mayonnaise: Put 18 garlic cloves in a medium pot, and cover with a couple inches of water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Continue cooking for 30 seconds. Drain garlic and allow to cool to room temperature.
  • Meanwhile, mince the remaining 2 garlic cloves. In a food processor, combine blanched and raw garlic, mayonnaise and lemon juice; process until completely smooth. With the machine running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil. Transfer mixture to a bowl, stir in minced dill, and season to taste with salt and pepper. (You should have about 1 1/2 cups.)
  • Make the kebabs: Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, and fold with very clean hands until fully incorporated. Divide mixture in half, then divide each half into 6 equal balls. Working on a clean cutting board, roll them into cylinders about 3/4 inch in diameter. Cut each cylinder in half to form 24 small logs.
  • Cook and serve: In a large skillet over medium-high, heat oil until shimmering. Add the logs, working in batches if necessary to prevent crowding. Cook on one side until well browned, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook on second side until well browned and cooked through, another 1 1/2 minutes. (Alternatively, cook on a hot grill until lightly charred and cooked through.) Transfer to a serving plate.
  • Serve with sumac onions, garlic-dill mayonnaise, cherry tomatoes, arugula, hot sauce and Turkish bread or pita.

GOUJONS OF SOLE AND DILL MAYONNAISE



Goujons of Sole and Dill Mayonnaise image

Goujons have fallen out of favor over the last two decades, but it is hard to work out why. The crunch of the bread crumb casing, the tender, yielding softness of the white fish within: this is a fishfinger taken to the highest level. The traditional accompaniment is a tartar sauce, but my favourite sauce is a dill mayonnaise, with perhaps some cornichons tumbled on a plate nearby. Consider these a fabulously quick starter when you've got people over or a real treat of a midweek supper for two. The trick is to prepare ahead for that. I make up a vast batch of these and freeze them. Then, when it's dinner time and I don't know what I'm going to cook, I heat some oil in a pan and fry a handful from frozen. They barely need an extra minute. I prefer to fry in batches in a small saucepan rather than fill a frying pan with a lot of oil and try and get them all done at once. If you can find the Japanese seasoned bread crumbs, panko, then get them: they create an almost feathery but crunchy casing.

Categories     appetizer

Time 25m

Yield 16 pieces, about 3 servings as a main course; 5 as a starter

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 fillets lemon sole, skinned
1/2 cup cornstarch
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup breadcrumbs or 2 cups panko
2 eggs
1 cup groundnut or grapeseed oil, as needed depending on the size of pan
1 cup mayonnaise, preferably organic
Small bunch dill, about 1/3 cup
1/2 to 1 teaspoon lime juice, to taste

Steps:

  • Cut the sole fillets in half lengthways, and then slice each fillet half into about 4 long strips on the diagonal. This will give you 8 goujons from each fillet.
  • Put the cornstarch into a shallow bowl and season with salt and pepper. Put the bread crumbs or panko into another shallow bowl, and beat the eggs together in an additional bowl.
  • Dip each goujon into the seasoned cornstarch, coating it well, then the beaten egg, and finally the bread crumbs.
  • Lay the goujons on a cooling rack for a while, and heat the oil in a pan. (Or at this point you can freeze them in layers of baking parchment in an airtight container.)
  • Fry the goujons for about 2 minutes, or until crisp and golden. Remove to pieces of kitchen towel, as you go, to remove excess oil.
  • For the Dill Mayonnaise:
  • Put the mayonnaise into a bowl, and finely chop the dill, adding it to the mayonnaise. Stir in some lime juice and taste for seasoning. Serve with the prepared fish.

SALMON AND DILL POTATO PATTIES WITH LIME MAYONNAISE



Salmon and Dill Potato Patties With Lime Mayonnaise image

This is a variation on the classic salmon patty. I know there are a lot of recipes out there for these but this is worth a try, the lime mayonnaise may really be the thing that sets them apart. These are also great in a sandwich with the mayonnaise to keep it from being too dry. (from Fast Food, my fave cookbook)

  • Transfer the potato to a large bowl, then mash roughly with the back of a spoon, leaving some large chunks. Stir in the salmon, dill and spring onion and season. Mix in the egg and the remaining mayonnaise. Divide into eight portions, forming palm-size patties. Press lightly into the breadcrbums to coat.
  • Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and cook the patties, turning, for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve with a dollop of lime mayonnaise, rocket leaves and lime wedges.

2 tablespoons whole coriander seeds
1/4 cup coarse salt
1/4 cup cracked black peppercorns
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 pounds skinless salmon fillet
1 bunch fresh dill
Dill Mayonnaise (recipe below)
Thinly sliced black bread

3/4 cup soybean oil
1 bunch chopped fresh dill leaves

(Make the sandwich even by placing the thick end of salmon of top of thin end.)

  • To serve, scrape off spices and dill. Slice thinly and serve cold with Dill Mayonnaise and thinly sliced black bread.
  • In a bowl, combine egg yolks, mustard, vinegar, and sugar. Blend with whisk. Gradually add olive oil and soybean oil, a drop at a time, whisking constantly. As mayonnaise begins to thicken, add oils more generously. Whisk in dill, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasonings and store in refrigerator up to 4 days.
