Salmon Cakes With Pickle Tartar Sauce
- For the cakes:
- 1 can Red Salmon, bones discarded
- 1 egg
- 2 medium baking potatoes, such as russet
- 2 cups yellow onions, chopped
- 1 cup fresh dill, chopped
- 2 cups bread crumbs (japanese style works best)
- salt and pepper to taste
- For the sauce:
- 3-4 baby sour dill pickles (gherkins), diced
- 1/3 cup mayo
- pickle brine to taste
- For the sauce (I recommend making this first):
- 1. Combine pickles and mayo.
- 2. Add brine for consistency: sauce should be thin enough to
- drip, but not watery.
- 3. Cover and refrigerate.
- For the cakes:
- 1. Boil potatoes in large pot until tender. Drain. Mash away lumps.
- 2. Combine salmon, potato, onion, egg, and dill in large mixing bowl.
- 3. Form cakes 3 inches in diameter, 1 inch thick. Set aside on plate.
- 4. Lay cakes onto plate of bread crumbs, pressing to ensure crumbs stick.
- 5. Fry cakes in a large skillet over medium heat, 4 at a time, until cooked through (approximately 6-8 minutes per side). Adjust heat as needed.
