Salmon Mushy Pea Fishcakes Recipes

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:

• Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water for about 10 mins, until tender. Drain really well, then return to the pan and steam dry for a few mins. Remove from the heat, add the horseradish, then mash together.
• Gently stir in the flaked trout, lemon zest and half the juice with some seasoning. When the mixture is cool enough to handle, make 8 patty-shaped cakes, dust each one lightly with flour, then chill for 5 mins to set.
• To make the mushy peas, put the peas in a pan with the stock and bring to the boil, reduce the heat and cook for 3 mins until tender. Transfer to a food processor, or use a stick blender, and whizz for 30 secs to a crush. Tip them back into the pan, add a squeeze of lemon juice and some seasoning, and keep warm.
• Heat the oil in a frying pan until hot, cook the fish cakes for 3-4 mins on each side until golden and crisp - you may have to do this in batches. Serve with mushy peas and some extra lemon wedges on the side.

Steps:

• Cook the diced potatoes in a large pan of boiling water for 12-15 minutes, until tender.
• Place the fish in a saute and pour over the milk. Cover, bring to the boil and then remove from the heat and set aside for 5 minutes or, until cooked through.
• Drain the diced potatoes well and return to the pan. Add the mint jelly and some salt and pepper and mash together. Remove the fish from the pan and drain it well, discarding the milk. Flake the fish into the potatoes. Add the mushy peas and stir together. Shape and the mixture into four firm, even sized cakes.
• Dust the fishcakes lightly with the seasoned flour. Put the beaten egg into a shallow bowl and spread the breadcrumbs on a plate. Then dip the fishcakes into the beaten egg and then into the breadcrumbs.
• Heat a little sunflower oil in a frying pan and gently cook the fishcakes for 2 minutes on each side or until crisp and golden. Drain on kitchen paper. The fishcakes may have to be cooked in two batches.
• Cut the lemon into wedges. Squeeze a little lemon juice into the mayonnaise. Serve with a dollop of the lemon mayo and a lemon wedge on the side.

Steps:

• 1. Boil the potatoes until soft, drain very well, mash and season well with salt and pepper. 2. Place the salmon in a large bowl; remove any large bones and skin. 3. Add the marrowfat peas and mashed potato and mix together well. 4. Divide into 8 portions, and shape into a fishcake shape, place on a baking sheet, cover and chill. 5. Brush the fishcake with egg and coat well with breadcrumbs. 6. Shallow fry the fishcakes for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown.

Steps:

• If you're using leftover cooked potatoes, mash them until they are smooth. Flake the salmon into a bowl, removing any skin and large bones. Add the peas, mint, tartare sauce and mashed potato, and season to taste. Mix well, then, using floured hands, shape into 8 flat fishcakes. Dust with flour.
• Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Fry the fishcakes in 2 batches for 3-4 mins each side, turning carefully with a fish slice or spatula, until golden and crisp. Serve with a squeeze of lemon and a green salad.
