Salmon Cakes with Artichoke Tartar Sauce
- 1 small jar artichokes, drained and chopped
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons chopped cornichons
- 1 tablespoon chopped capers (rinsed and drained)
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup finely diced celery
- 1/4 cup finely diced red onions
- 1/4 cup finely diced red bell peppers
- 2 tablespoons minced freshly parsley
- Two 14.75-ounce cans boneless, skinless salmon
- 2/3 cup cracker crumbs (I like Ritz)
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 egg
- Zest of 1 lemon
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- For tartar sauce: Combine the artichokes, mayonnaise, cornichons, capers, Dijon and lemon juice in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper.
- Refrigerate until ready to use.
- For the cakes: In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of the oil and saute the celery, onions and bell peppers until tender, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Stir in the parsley.
- Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and add the salmon, cracker crumbs, mayonnaise, Dijon, salt, pepper, egg and lemon zest and juice.
- Mix with your hands until evenly combined.
- Shape into patties (I use 1/2 cup per patty, making 8).
- Place on a baking sheet and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat.
- Cook the patties (do not overcrowd the pan -- I do 4 at a time) until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to cook the second batch.
- Transfer to a serving platter and serve with the tartar sauce.
