Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

3 ounces whole red onion or 2 ounces chopped ready-cut onion (3/4 cup)
Several sprigs of dill to yield 2 tablespoons chopped
1 tablespoon capers
1 tablespoon horseradish
2 egg whites
10 ounces salmon fillet

Steps:

Preheat broiler or prepare grill on top of stove.
Chop whole onion; wash and chop dill, and rinse capers. Mix ingredients together with horseradish and egg whites in a bowl large enough to hold all the ingredients.
Grill or broil salmon following the Canadian rule: measure fish at thickest point and cook 8 minutes to the inch. When salmon is cooked, flake and stir into bowl, and mix well. Shape into 4 patties.
Grill patties on top of stove, or preheat a nonstick skillet and saute them until brown on both sides, about 4 or 5 minutes total.
