Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 pounds walleye fillets
salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ cup dry white wine
1 carrot, shredded
1 red onion, diced
1 stalk celery, diced
4 cups panko bread crumbs
2 cups mayonnaise
1 tablespoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons oil for frying, or as needed
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1 cup mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Place walleye fillets in a baking dish, pour in wine, and season with salt and pepper. Bake in the preheated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes. Allow the fish to cool and break it into large chunks. Set aside.
  • Mix carrot, red onion, celery, panko crumbs, 2 cups mayonnaise, seafood seasoning, and 1 teaspoon salt in a bowl until well blended. Add the walleye, mixing gently so the chunks of fish don't break apart. Shape the mixture into 12 patties.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Fry the patties until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
  • Whisk lemon juice and fresh dill into 1 cup mayonnaise in a bowl. Drizzle the sauce over the walleye cakes and serve.

WALLEYE CAKES

I have seen a lot of recipes for walleye fish, but they all seemed to be breaded and deep-fried or battered and deep-fried or just baked... So I figured if you can make fish cakes tasty with salmon and so on... Why not post a recipe up for walleye... Frankly I am just tired of deep frying up walleye once a week. It is time for a tasty change.

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 fillets walleye or other white flaky fish such as black bass or tilapia (about 1 pound 1 ounce)
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon smoked sweet paprika
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons capers
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill (6 grams), plus more for garnish
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives (4 grams)
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
2 celery stalks (80 grams), finely diced (about 1/3 cup or 51 grams)
Sour cream, for garnish
Sliced cornichons, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the fish on top. Drizzle the fish evenly with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Mix the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over each of the fillets. Bake until the fish is opaque and can be easily flaked with a fork, about 10 minutes. Let cool until warm, about 10 minutes.
  • Flake the fish (leave the skin on the baking sheet; the meat should easily pull away from it) and transfer to a medium bowl (you should have about 339 grams fish). Add the panko, mayonnaise, capers, dill, chives, lemon zest, celery, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds black pepper and mix to combine.
  • Form the mixture into tablespoon-sized patties (about 16 grams each). (You should get 20 to 24 patties.) Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in two batches, fry the patties until golden brown and can easily pull away from the pan, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and repeat with the remaining patties. Dollop with some sour cream, a few sprigs of dill or sliced cornichons on top and secure with a toothpick. Serve immediately.
