The combination of salmon and whitefish is delicious (and pretty). The recipe is from Diane Rossen Worthington and was published in Bon Appétit Magazine (April 2008) and is a great alternative to traditional gefilte fish.

18 ounces skinless whitefish fillets, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 9-ounce skinless salmon fillet, cut into 1-inch cubes
Lemon wedges
Fresh Italian parsley sprigs

Steps:

  • For sauce:
  • Stir cucumber, mayonnaise, horseradish, parsley, and chives in medium bowl to blend. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.
  • For fish cakes:
  • Line large rimmed baking sheet with plastic wrap. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add carrots and leeks. Saut233 until soft but not brown, about 15 minutes. Cool in skillet.
  • Beat eggs, matzo meal, coarse salt, and white pepper in large bowl to blend. Stir in carrot mixture. Place whitefish and salmon cubes in processor. Using on/off turns, chop fish to coarse paste (small pieces of fish will remain). Stir fish into matzo meal mixture.
  • Using wet hands and about 1/3 cup for each, shape fish mixture into sixteen 1/2-inch-thick cakes. Arrange on prepared baking sheet. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover with plastic and chill.

  • Arrange 2 fish cakes on each plate. Spoon sauce over or alongside. Garnish with lemon wedges and parsley.
  • What to drink:
  • A Chardonnay would be delicious with the haroseth and the salmon and whitefish cakes. We like the apple, pear, and vanilla notes of the Baron Herzog 2006 Chardonnay from Herzog Wine Cellars on California's Central Coast. It's a great kosher wine and a good value at $13.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh, high-quality salmon. If you don't have access to fresh salmon, you can use frozen salmon that has been thawed in the refrigerator overnight.
  • Be sure to remove the skin and bones from the salmon before cooking. This will make the salmon cakes easier to eat and more enjoyable.
  • When making the salmon cakes, be careful not to overmix the ingredients. Overmixing can make the salmon cakes tough.
  • If you don't have panko breadcrumbs, you can use regular breadcrumbs or crushed crackers instead.
  • Be sure to cook the salmon cakes over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning.
  • Serve the salmon cakes immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Salmon cakes are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner, and they can also be served as an appetizer or snack. With so many different ways to make salmon cakes, there is sure to be a recipe that everyone will enjoy.
