CRISPY SALMON CAKES WITH LEMON- CAPER MAYONNAISE



Crispy Salmon Cakes With Lemon- Caper Mayonnaise image

This recipe was published in Cooking Light. I make it a bit different than it originally appeared, though (I don't use fat-free mayonnaise, saltines, etc. and also add some additional ingredients to suit my taste). If you would like to make the original version, just stick with the fat-free items and omit the last 4 items in the ingredient list (mayo through Tabasco) and you will have the original recipe. Prep time includes 20 minutes chilling time for the salmon cakes.

Top Techniques for Achieving Crispy Salmon Patties

  • Fresh, Quality Salmon: Use fresh, high-quality fillets to ensure the best taste and texture.
  • Proper Cleaning: Clean the fillets properly to remove any pin-bones and ensure the mixture comes together smoothly.
  • Moisture Removal: Ensure the fillets are dry before making the patties to achieve a crispy texture.
  • Well-balanced Ingredients: Create a mixture that includes breadcrumbs, herbs, spices, and binding agents.
  • Shaping the Patties: Form the patties with a gentle touch to avoid making them too densely compacted.
  • Pan-Fritters: Pan-fry the patties to achieve a crispy finish, and ensure the cooking temperature is high enough.
  • Baking with Parchment Paper: To avoid sticking and get even cooking, use parchment paper when roasting the patties.
  • Air Fying: Use an air fryer as an alternative for a healthier cooking method, and adjust the temperature and time.
