Ingredients
  

  • 1 213g can salmon, with bones, drained*
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp chopped dill
  • 2 tbsp chopped green onions
  • tartar sauce or spicy may for dipping

Equipment

  • 1 baking tray

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Place the salmon in a bowl. Remove any large piece of skin that may be in the can and mash the salmon with a fork to break up the bones.
  3. Add the egg, breadcrumbs, dill and green onions and mix to combine.
  4. Shape salmon mixture into rounds using a cookie scoop for smaller cakes (yield is ~10) or a 1/3 cup measure for larger cakes (yields about 5 patties) and place onto a parchment lined baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 15 minutes, until golden brown, turning them over after about 7 minutes. Alternatively, you can pan fry the salmon cakes in a couple tablespoons of neutral oil over medium heat for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden and slightly crisp around the edges.
  6. Serve with tartar sauce or spicy mayo for dipping.
