James Martin's salmon croquettes recipe
- 180 g (6.3oz) Tinned red Salmon, drained
- 750 g (26.5oz) Peeled Charlotte potatoes
- 1 tbsp Chopped dill
- 2 Medium eggs
- 100 g (3.5oz) Fresh white breadcrumbs
- 100 g (3.5oz) Plain flour for dusting
- 500 ml (17.6fl oz) Oil for deep frying
- 1 Jar sweet chilli jam
- 80 g (2.8oz) Watercress
- Place the potatoes in salted water and bring to the boil and simmer until tender.
- Drain and mash, season and cool.
- Once cold, add the chopped dill and John West Salmon.
- Mix well and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Divide the mixture into 25g or 1oz pieces and roll into cylinder shapes on a lightly floured surface, you should end up with 20 in total.
- On a tray put the flour next to it, put the beaten eggs and next to that the breadcrumbs.
- Coat them first in the flour, then egg, then in the bread crumbs and repeat to give them a double coating.
- Place in the fridge for 1 hour to firm up before cooking.
- Preheat the oil to 190c/375f and deep fry the croquettes until golden brown - it should take 1 to 2 minutes, drain on kitchen paper.
- Serve hot with a little pot of sweet chilli jam for dipping on the side with some watercress.
