Time 1h

Yield Makes 20

Number Of Ingredients 17

250g smoked haddock fillets
175g salmon fillet
300ml milk
1 clove
1 onion , halved
1 bay leaf
50g butter
250g mashed potato (boil and mash 350g/12oz potatoes)
splash of Worcestershire sauce
2 hard-boiled eggs , finely chopped
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 tbsp chopped fresh dill
plain flour , for coating
1 egg , beaten for dipping
fresh breadcrumb , for coating
oil or butter , for cooking
spicy tomato sauce, for dipping (optional)

Steps:

  • Simmer the smoked haddock and salmon in the milk with the clove, half the onion and bay leaf for 5 mins. Remove the fish from the milk and, when cool enough to handle, discard any skin or bone then flake. (The milk can be used to make a parsley sauce.)
  • Finely chop the remaining ½ onion and fry in half the butter until softened. Stir into the mash with the smoked haddock and Worcestershire sauce until smoothish, lightly mix in the salmon, boiled eggs and herbs, then season, preferably by hand so you don't overmix. Chill for 1 hr for the flavours to meld and the mixture to firm.
  • Divide the mixture into 20 equal amounts, then shape into patties. Dip in flour, egg and breadcrumbs and reshape. Chill again before cooking. These can be made up to a day ahead at this stage then chilled.
  • Fry in a non-stick frying pan with a little oil for 5-7 mins on each side until the coating is crispy, or grill topped with tiny knobs of butter. Serve with tomato sauce for dipping, if you like.

SALMON AND COD FISH CAKES



Salmon and Cod Fish Cakes image

I had a little salmon and cod to use up, not enough to make a meal out of either, so I came up with this recipe the other night, to use them both together. We really enjoyed them served over salads and I made a tangy mayonnaise relish to go over the top of the cakes which went well with them. The amounts listed below for the fish are just what I had in my fridge and I am sure could be adjusted slightly.

3 green onions, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, crushed
3 tablespoons parsley, finely chopped
2 tablespoons dill, finely chopped

1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons pickle relish
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons creamy mustard
1 green onion, finely sliced
1 tablespoon chopped chives

Steps:

  • Mayonnaise Relish.

  • In a large bowl combine all the ingredients down to the panko flakes, add a few tablespoons of panko flakes to the mix to bind ingredients together.
  • Shape into patties, you will get about 6 large or 8 medium patties from this.
  • Pour more panko flakes onto a plate, coat the outside of each pattie with panko flakes.
  • Heat a little oil in a pan, add patties and cook both sides, until browned and crisp on the outside.

SALMON AND COD CAKE



Salmon and Cod Cake image

Provided by Robert Irvine : Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 23

4 ounces cod or other white fish
4 ounces salmon
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup grapeseed oil
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon minced fresh parsley
1 teaspoon pimentos, diced
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 ounces mayonnaise
1 ounce chopped dill pickles
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon thinly sliced scallions
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup frisee
1 tablespoon green beans
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/3 Granny Smith apple, julienned
1 ounce olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 ounce lump crab

Steps:

  • For the salmon and cod cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly sprinkle the cod and salmon with salt, pepper and 2 tablespoons of the oil. Bake until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes, then cool and place in a bowl. Add one-quarter of the panko, the mayonnaise, parsley, pimentos, zest and some salt and pepper. Mix together gently to prevent the fish from breaking too much. Form two 4-ounce patties. The cakes should be moist. Gently crust the outside of the patties with the remaining panko, which will prevent the patties from sticking to the pan.
  • Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil in a medium pan, then place the cakes in the oil and pan-fry until warmed through and the outside is nicely browned, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • For the remoulade: Mixing together the mayonnaise, pickles, lemon juice, mustard, parsley, scallions and some salt and pepper.
  • For the salad: In a large bowl, mix the frisee, green beans, lemon juice, apples, olive oil and some salt and pepper.
  • Lay down the remoulade on the plate, place the fish cake on top, and then garnish with the lump crab and salad.
