Best Smoked Salmon Potato Cakes With Garlic Cream Recipes

POTATO CAKES WITH SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Make the potato cakes. Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Tip in the potatoes and cook for 10-15 mins until soft. Drain well, then return to the hot pan for 1-2 mins to allow any excess moisture to evaporate. Pass the potatoes through a ricer or sieve to get a really fine mash.
• Weigh out 250g of the mash and place in a bowl (you shouldn't have much left over). Tip in the flour, baking powder and 1 tsp salt. Mix together until the mixture forms a soft dough. Shape into a ball, then tip out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll out into a circle about 20cm across and 1cm thick. Cut into 8 triangular wedges and generously dust all over with flour. The potato cakes can be made up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled or frozen for up to 1 month.
• Set a large, non-stick frying pan over a medium heat (no need to add oil). When hot, dry-fry the cakes for about 3-5 mins on each side until golden and cooked through. You may have to do this in batches. Stir a little water into the soft cheese until it is spoonable. Place the potato cakes on plates, top with dollops of soft cheese and a smoked salmon slice, then scatter over the red onion, capers and lemon zest to finish.

EASY, STEP BY STEP POTATO AND SALMON FISH CAKES

Steps:

• Put the mashed potatoes, salmon, egg, salt, pepper and parsley together in a bowl.
• Mix all the ingredients together using a fork to break up the fish, then form into patties (if the mixture is too soft, refrigerate for an hour or so before shaping).
• Dip patties into beaten egg, then coat in the breadcrumbs.
• Place on a baking sheet, and continue until the remaining mixture is finished.
• Fry gently over medium heat until golden brown on both sides, adding oil as needed.
• Place on paper-towel lined sheet to absorb the excess oil. Serve as desired.

SMOKED SALMON POTATO CAKES WITH GARLIC CREAM

Steps:

• To make the garlic cream squeeze the garlic out of each clove into a food processor.
• Add the eggs and lemon juice.
• Add the olive oil gradually in a thin stream with the motor running until the mixture thickens.
• Season to taste with slat and pepper, add dill and refrigerate until needed.
• Cook potatoes in boiling water until almost done, cool and then grate them into a large bowl.
• Mix the salmon, parsley, egg and onions into the potato, season with salt and pepper.
• Shape into 12 small cakes; mix the breadcrumbs with the sesame seeds and coat the cakes evenly with them.
• Sauté the cakes on medium heat in a little oil until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes each side. Serve hot with garlic cream.

POTATO GALETTES WITH SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes, then cut them lengthwise in long matchsticks, using the finest julienne blade of a mandoline. Spread the potatoes out neatly in one layer on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels, roll the towel up, and squeeze lightly to dry the potatoes without breaking them up. Put the potatoes into a bowl and toss them with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a small (8-inch) omelet pan (a saute pan with sloped sides) over medium heat. Add half of the potatoes to the pan and press lightly with a large metal spatula to make the shreds lie flat. Cook them undisturbed for 5 minutes. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the butter around the edge of the pan and cook the potatoes for another 3 to 5 minutes, until nicely browned on the bottom. Loosen the galette gently around the edge with the metal spatula and flip it over. (Be careful! The oil and butter underneath are very hot!) Add another tablespoon of butter around the edge and cook the galette for 4 to 5 minutes longer, until the second side is nicely browned. With the metal spatula, transfer the galette to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside. Repeat with the rest of the potatoes and butter to make a second galette.
• Place the two galettes on a cutting board. Spread each galette with 2 tablespoons of the creme fraiche and a layer of smoked salmon, covering the galette completely. Sprinkle with minced chives and sprinkle lightly with salt. Use a large chef's knife to cut each galette into 6 wedges and serve hot.

POTATO CAKES WITH SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• In a batter jug, whisk the eggs, milk, finely sliced spring onions/scallions and olive oil together.
• Stir in the smash/potato flakes, flour and baking powder and then finally the lemon juice.
• Heat a flat griddle, and drop tablespoon sized dollops of the mixture onto the hot griddle.
• Cook for about 30 seconds a side or until golden brown and firm enough at the sides to flip.
• Once you have made the pancakes, and they've cooled a little, tear off tiny strips of smoked salmon and arrange the small slices on each pancake.
• Decorate each salmon topped pancake with a tiny feather of dill.

POTATO SCONES WITH SMOKED SALMON & SOURED CREAM

Steps:

• Bring a small pan of water to the boil and simmer the potatoes for 12-15 mins until tender. Drain and leave to steam-dry. Return the potatoes to the pan and mash with the butter. Stir in the flour, baking powder, ½ tsp salt and a good grinding of black pepper.
• Tip the potato mixture onto a lightly floured work surface and press into a circle roughly 15cm wide and about 1cm thick, then cut into four wedges.
• Heat a splash of oil and a knob of butter in a non-stick skillet or frying pan over a medium heat, and fry one of the scones for 3-4 mins on each side until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining scones.
• Divide the scones and smoked salmon or trout between two plates, then top with the soured cream and chopped chives. Season and serve.

POTATO CAKES WITH SMOKED SALMON & CREAM CHEESE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Prick the potatoes all over with a fork, then bake whole for 1 hr 20 mins or until crisp on the outside and fluffy inside. Set aside on a wire rack to cool. Reduce oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
• Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut in half and scoop out the flesh into a large bowl, discarding the skins. Mash the potato really well, then mix in two-thirds of the melted butter, all the flour and the bicarbonate of soda. Season well.
• Line a large (approx 35 x 25cm) baking tray with a piece of baking parchment and brush with half the remaining butter. Roll out the potato dough on a floured surface, then lay it on the lined baking tray - don't worry if it breaks, just push the pieces back together once on the tray. Brush the dough with the remaining melted butter and bake for 45 mins or until golden brown on the outside.
• Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the tray. Meanwhile, put the cream cheese in a large bowl and whisk until smooth and light. Stir in the double cream and lemon juice, and season well with black pepper. Spread the cream cheese mixture all over the surface of the cooled potato cake. Use a large, sharp knife to cut the potato cake into 30 squares, then top with the strips of salmon, the dill fronds, caperberries and lemon zest. Transfer to a serving platter and serve.
