Salmon Cakes With Ginger-Sesame Sauce image

By FN chef Ellie Krieger published in the USA Weekend magazine. This recipe relies, pretty much, on pantry ingredients. If I did not have fresh ginger for the sauce, I would mix mayonnaise with Thai chili sauce or sriracha.

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 slices whole wheat sandwich bread
2 (15 ounce) cans salmon, drained and picked over for skin and bones
2 large eggs, slightly beaten
5 scallions
1/2 cup canned water chestnut, finely chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 teaspoons olive oil
6 tablespoons greek-style plain fat-free yogurt
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 1/2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1 teaspoon low sodium soy sauce

Steps:

  • Remove the crusts from the bread tear into pieces and process in a food processor until you get fine bread crumbs. (I just put in a bowl and processed with my hand blender, worked just fine). You will have about 3 cups of soft crumbs.
  • In a large bowl, flake apart the salmon with a fork. Add the eggs and mix well.
  • Finely chop 4 of the scallions (white and green parts) and add to the bowl.
  • Add the water chestnuts, cilantro pepper and the bread crumbs and mix well.
  • Shape into 12 patties.
  • In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 1 2 tsp of the oil over medium heat. Add 6 patties and cook for 5 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil.
  • Repeat with remaining oil and salmon patties.
  • Sauce: if you do not have Greek-style yogurt, use 1/2 cup regular non-fat yogurt but drain it in a coffee filter for 30 minutes.
  • Place all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until smooth.
  • Serve the patties with the sauce on the side, and garnished with the remaining chopped scallion.

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 green onion, chopped
1 tablespoon miso paste
1 cup heavy cream
¼ cup sake
¼ cup fresh lime juice
1 ½ cups dry bread crumbs
1 (7 ounce) can salmon, drained and flaked
⅓ cup chopped onion
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 egg
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Heat the vegetable oil and sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the green onion and garlic, and cook until tender. Stir in the miso paste and sake until blended. Bring to a simmer then stir in the cream and lime juice. Return to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the bread crumbs, salmon, onion, and cilantro. IN a small bowl, whisk together the egg, soy sauce and water using a fork. Stir about half of this into the salmon mixture, and if it seems dry, stir in a little more until the salmon mixture will stick together in patties.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Form the salmon mixture into 2 inch patties for appetizers, or 4 inch patties for a main dish. Fry patties for about 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Serve with the sauce drizzled over, or separately for dipping.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon. Fresh salmon is best for this recipe, but you can also use frozen salmon that has been thawed. Look for salmon that is firm and has a bright pink color.
  • Flake the salmon gently. When you are flaking the salmon, be careful not to break it up too much. You want the salmon cakes to have some texture.
  • Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as dill and parsley, add a lot of flavor to these salmon cakes. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but they won't be as flavorful.
  • Don't overcook the salmon cakes. Salmon cakes are best when they are cooked through but still moist. Overcooking them will make them dry and tough.
  • Serve the salmon cakes with your favorite dipping sauce. Creamy ginger-sesame sauce is a great option, but you can also serve them with tartar sauce, remoulade, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

These salmon cakes are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover salmon. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
