Salmon cakes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are made with flaked salmon, mashed potatoes, eggs, and spices, and are then pan-fried until golden brown. Salmon cakes are often served with a cool lime sauce, which adds a refreshing and tangy flavor to the dish. The sauce is made with mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, and cilantro, and is typically served on the side or drizzled over the salmon cakes.

- Don't overmix the salmon cakes. Overmixing will make the salmon cakes tough.
- Cook the salmon cakes over medium heat. This will help them cook evenly without burning.
- Serve the salmon cakes with a variety of dipping sauces. Some popular choices include tartar sauce, remoulade sauce, and cocktail sauce.
