Ingredients

  • 400 grams cooked salmon (flaked)
  • 0.5 cup red onion (finely chopped)
  • 0.25 cup fresh cilantro (chopped)
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 piece large egg
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons yellow curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flaked cooked salmon, red onion, fresh cilantro, and breadcrumbs.

Step 2

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg, mayonnaise, lime juice, yellow curry powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until smooth.

Step 3

Pour the wet mixture into the salmon mixture and stir well until all ingredients are fully combined. The mixture should hold together when pressed.

Step 4

Using your hands, shape the mixture into 8 evenly sized patties, about 1 inch thick.

Step 5

Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 6

Once the oil is hot, carefully add the salmon cakes to the skillet. Cook in batches if necessary. Fry the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

Step 7

Transfer the cooked salmon cakes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Step 8

Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce or side salad.
