Salmon Fish Cakes Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 salmon fillets (fresh or frozen (or two small cans, drained))
• 200 g mashed potato
• 1 tbsp chopped chives (optional)
• 1 tiny pinch salt and black pepper
• 1 tbsp olive oil (plus some to grease the tray)

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 200C (180C fan / 400F). If you're using canned salmon, you can skip to step two, otherwise, cook the salmon according to pack instructions. Allow to cool, then flake the salmon with a fork.

2. 2

   Place the potato, salmon, salt, pepper and chives (if using) in a bowl.

3. 3

   Add the olive oil and mix together well with a fork.

4. 4

   Roll into eight equally sized balls and place on an oiled baking sheet. They'll weigh about 50g (1.8 oz) each.

5. 5

   Flatten each ball with the palm of your hand to create patties.

6. 6

   Bake for 20 minutes until just firm and golden, then serve as soon as cooled enough to be eaten safely.
