Salmon Cakes
- 1 pound Salmon Fillet
- 1/4 cups Scallions, Sliced Thin Both Whites And Greens
- 1/4 cups Parsley, Chopped
- 1- 1/4 cup Fresh Bread Crumbs From A Loaf Of French Bread
- 3 dashes Red Pepper (or More)
- 2 Tablespoons Mayonnaise (or More If Needed)
- 1 Tablespoon Dijon Mustard
- 1 whole Egg
- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 whole Yellow Or Orange Pepper
- 1 Tablespoon Rice Wine Vinegar Or White Wine Vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon Dijon Mustard
- 1 pinch Sea Or Kosher Salt
- 1 teaspoon Red Pepper
- 5 Tablespoons Light Olive Oil
- 12 whole Green Olives
- Fill a medium saucepan halfway with water.
- Place salmon in the pan, cover and cook over high heat until simmering.
- Then reduce heat to low and cook for about 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat, drain the water and let salmon cool by placing it in your fridge for 20 minutes or so.
- Dont worry if the salmon is not thoroughly cooked through as the salmon cakes will be cooked as well.
- Once its cooled a bit, use a fork and flake the salmon into a bowl (my kids love doing this part).
- Add to that the scallions, parsley, breadcrumbs, red pepper, mayo, mustard and egg.
- Combine well with your hands or a spatula.
- Form into about 8 cakes, place on a plate, cover with wrap and place in your fridge for them to set (about 20 minutes).
- Roasted Pepper-Olive Aioli:
- Broil the pepper in your oven on a piece of foil for a few minutes, turing occasionally, to evenly brown the skin.
- The skin begins to blister when they are done.
- Dont overcook or blacken.
- This will just take a few minutes (but it brings out great flavor).
- Once pepper is cool enough to handle, cut it apart, discarding the guts and seeds.
- Cut it into chunks and place in your food processor.
- Give it a few pluses.
- Add the rest of the ingredients, pulse until smooth.
- Cover until ready to serve.
- To cook the salmon cakes, place 2 Tablespoons of olive oil in your frying/saute pan and heat the oil over medium high heat.
- Carefully place the cakes in the pan and over medium heat, cook about 2-3 minutes a side.
- Serve with aioli and enjoy!
- This aioli is tasty and can even be served as a spread on slices of baguette!
- Enjoy!
