Spicy Salmon Coriander Fish Cakes Recipes

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes. Meanwhile, dry-fry the cumin seeds for a couple of secs in a large non-stick frying pan. When soft, drain the potatoes, return to the saucepan, add the cumin, onions, chilli and coriander with plenty of seasoning, then mash well. When cooled a little, beat in 2 tbsp of the egg, then carefully stir through the salmon. Shape into 4 rough cakes, then coat in flour. If freezing, freeze on a baking sheet until solid, then pack up.
• In the frying pan, melt the butter with the oil. Fry the cakes for about 2 mins each side until golden. Serve with the mayo, raita (recipe below) or mango chutney and some salad leaves.

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes and sweet potato and place in a large microwaveable bowl. Add the lemon juice and 1/4 of the chopped coriander, cover with cling film and microwave on full for 10 minutes / until cooked. (Add a little extra water if required).
• Whilst the potatoes are cooking, gently fry the onion, garlic, chilli, grated lemon zest & coriander in half the oil until the onions are translucent.
• Break up the bread and place in a food processor and blitz into breadcrumbs, adding the Paprika.
• Mash the potatoes adding the remaining olive oil and all of the butter.
• Stir the fried ingredients, remaining coriander, crumbled feta and egg into the mash. (Add salt and pepper to taste).
• Form cakes of your preferred size (If the mixture is too wet to easily form into cakes, add some of the breadcrumbs to improve consistency) and cover with breadcrumbs.
• Either fry gently for 5 minutes each side or place on a baking tray and bake on 180Cm, turning once, for 10-15 minutes (or until lightly browned).

Steps:

• Heat the grill.
• Place 450g floury potatoes, cut into chunks, in a pan of water, bring to the boil, cover and cook for 12-15 mins until tender. Drain and leave to steam-dry, then mash.
• Meanwhile, season 350g salmon fillet and grill for 5-6 mins until just cooked. Cool for a few mins, then break into large flakes.
• Mix the potato, 2 tsp tomato ketchup, 1 tsp English mustard, the zest of ½ lemon, 1 heaped tbsp chopped parsley, 1 heaped tbsp chopped dill and some seasoning. Lightly mix in the salmon, taking care not to break it up too much.
• Shape into 4 large fish cakes.
• Put 3 tbsp plain flour, 1 beaten egg and 100g dried breadcrumbs in 3 shallow dishes. Dip the cakes into the flour, dust off any excess, then dip in the egg, and finally coat in breadcrumbs.
• Heat 4 tbsp sunflower oil in a large pan. Fry the cakes over a medium-low heat for 3-4 mins each side until deep golden and heated through.
• Serve with salad and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• In a small dish, combine the salt, pepper and coriander. Sprinkle over salmon. In a nonstick skillet, cook salmon in oil over medium heat for 4 minutes on each side. Add the garlic, lime juice and hot pepper sauce. Reduce heat; cover and cook 3-4 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

Steps:

• Peel the sweet potato and cut into rough chunks, then put in a microwaveable bowl with a splash of water. Cover with cling film, then cook on high for 8 mins. Alternatively, you can cook these on a hob for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk the tahini with the lemon juice and enough water to make a thick dressing. Season and set aside.
• Carefully remove the cling film from the sweet potato, then blitz in a food processor until mashed but not pureed. Leave to cool for 5 mins, then add the coriander and coriander seeds. Blitz to a herby mash, (be careful not to over blitz as you still want some texture) and transfer to a mixing bowl. Then add the salmon, lemon zest, flour and some seasoning. Pulse again - you want the salmon to be roughly mixed in, rather than obliterated to mush.
• In a small bowl add the remaing flour and shape into four fishcakes, dipping into the flour to fully coat. Pop on a plate and press them down lightly to create patties. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Add the remaining tbsp of olive to a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add the fishcakes and fry for 5 mins on each side until crisp and golden. Serve with the lemon wedges, tahini dressing and salad.

Steps:

• Put the cooked flaked fish into a bowl and add half of the breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, beaten egg, coriander, cayenne and salt.
• Mix everything lightly together and roll into 12 small balls, flatten slightly and then leave to stand for at least 10 minutes.
• Mix the sesame seeds with the remaining breadcrumbs.
• Brush the fish cakes lightly with milk and dip into the breadcrumb mixture.
• Melt the butter in a frying pan with the olive oil and cook the fish cakes for about 2 minutes on each side until golden and warmed through.
• Serve on a bed of salad leaves with sweet chilli sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Slice onions finely.
• Chop the flesh of the capsicum finely.
• Cut the potatoes into 1cm cubes.
• Place all into a bowl with the Creole seasoning.
• Cut the fish into small pieces and mix through the potato mixture with the eggs, flour, salt and parsley.
• Heat frypan and add oil and butter.
• Cook 1 Tbs of the mixture, turning to brown both sides.
• Place fritters on absorbent paper.
• Serve with Corn Salsa, relish or a fruit chutney.
