Best Slammin Salmon Crunchy Cakes With Gayla Sauce Recipes

SLAMMIN' SOUTHWESTERN SALMON PATTIES OR SALMON CAKES

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together in bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit, refrigerated for at least half-hour to allow flavors to blend.
• Heat non-stick skillet on med-hi, spray with olive oil spray.
• Form patties and cook in skillet for about 5 mins each side or until outside is crispy.
• The cheese helps the patties stay together and keeps everything moist. Yum!

SLAMMIN' SALMON CRUNCHY CAKES WITH GAYLA SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine ingredients for the Gayla sauce and refrigerate.
• Sautee red pepper about 3 minutes in a non stick skillet in some butter or margarine. Add chopped garlic for the last thirty seconds.
• Combine peppers and garlic and all the rest of the ingredients except corn flakes in a bowl and mix together.
• Make four equal sized balls of this mixture and roll well into cornflake crumbs. Pat crumbs firmly and make sure it is well coated.(Balls will be about the size of a small baseball).
• Place balls on platter and press into patties about 1 inch thick.
• Fry immediately in a few tablespoons of hot oil in a non stick skillet on medium high heat. (You don't want them to sit around too long or the cornflakes will absorb moisture from the patties and not fry up as crispy.) Sear them quickly but of course, do not burn them about 3 or 4 minutes a side.
• NOTE: After mixing all the ingredients together you may refrigerate this to stiffen mixture up but I don't find it necessary unless you have used a very large egg. You may also make everything ahead of time and refrigerate. Simply remove about an hour before dinner and bring to room temperature or they will be hot on the outside but cold in the middle. Just don't roll in the cornflake crumbs until the last minute.
• Another Note: For a nice variation feel free to add 1/2 tsp or so of cumin to give these a "Tex-Mex" taste topped with some chili con queso. Yum! Be creative! This is a drop-to-the-floor-crawl-to-the-door moist patty. Make it as directed the first time and then EXPERIMENT! Make it your own.
