Salmon Cakes With Garlic Sauce image

This is very much like my Salmon Cake Sliders, but with a few tweaks, and with a much lighter sauce. These cakes are very delicate because there's only a minimal amount of breadcrumbs, but they're also very tasty.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 lb salmon
1/4 cup dry breadcrumbs
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon dill (for salmon cakes)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 ounce green onion, finely chopped
1 egg
4 tablespoons olive oil mayonnaise
1 teaspoon spicy brown mustard
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup bell pepper
1/2 teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay)
1 cup fat free Greek yogurt (for sauce)
1 tablespoon lemon juice (for sauce)
1 tablespoon dill (for sauce)
1 medium garlic clove, minced (for sauce)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt (for sauce)

Steps:

  • Set aside ingredients for sauce to be mixed separately.
  • Mix together salmon, chopped dill, garlic powder, and kosher salt. NOTE: fresh salmon tastes much better, but canned salmon can also be used. Add pepper as desired.
  • Chop bell pepper finely. Beat together egg, yogurt, hot sauce and mustard and blend with ingredients in the bowl.
  • Combine all ingredients (except ailoi ingredients) and mix well. The mixture will appear loose, which is how it's supposed to be. Most recipes load up on bread crumbs as a binder, which makes the patties more firm, but also cheats you out of some of the beautiful salmon.
  • Set out sheets of wax paper that are larger than the salmon cakes. Season bread crumbs with a little bit of salt and pepper and place in a shallow bowl. Dust a bit of the wax paper with the bread crumb mixture, then place 1/12 of the salmon mixture on top. Form into patties (I used a ring mold).
  • NOTE: with a good teflon pan, you shouldn't need to use oil or cooking spray.
  • Heat a pan to medium temperature. Pick up the wax paper along with the salmon patty, then flip over onto the pan, discarding wax paper sheet. Cook for about 3 minutes, then flip over and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until lightly brown.
  • Mix sauce ingredients together thoroughly and top as desired.
