This is an awesome recipe, I love to fix this with left over salmon. Sometimes the local butcher has a killer sale on salmon, so I'll pick up some extra and make up a batch of these. They have a sligt kick to them that can be adjusted to your personal taste by adjusting the amount of Cayenne pepper. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 large white onion, finely chopped |
2 stalks celery, finely chopped |
2 teaspoons dried mustard |
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1 1/2 lbs salmon, cooked and flaked |
1 1/2 cups seasoned bread crumbs, divided |
1/4 cup mayonnaise, divided |
1 egg |
salt and pepper |
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil (for frying, approx) |
1 cup mayonnaise |
1/4 cup roasted red pepper |
1 tablespoon lime juice |
2 teaspoons sugar |
Directions:
1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
2. Add onion and celery.
3. Saute until soft, about 5 minute Add dried mustard and cayenne.
4. Mix well and saute for 2 additional minutes.
5. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
6. In a large bowl, combine onion mixture, salmon, 3/4 cup of bread crumbs, 1/4 cup of mayonnaise, egg, salt and pepper.
7. Mix well and form into 10-12 patties about 1/2 thick.
8. Coat each patty with the remaining bread crumbs.
9. Heat about 1/4 inch of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
10. When hot, add patties in batches and fry until golden brown (about 3 min per side).
11. Drain patties on paper towels.
12. Cover and place in a warm oven until ready to serve.
13. To make the sweet red pepper sauce, combine 1 cup of mayo, 1/4 cup of roasted red peppers, 1 tablespoon of lime juice and 2 tsp of sugar in a blender.
14. Blend until smooth.
