How To Make seafood essentials: spicy baked salmon patties
-
Step 1PREP/PREPARE
-
Step 2You will need a large bowl to mix the ingredients, and a baking sheet to bake the patties. If you have a rack for the baking sheet that would be nice, but not a deal breaker.
-
Step 3Lots of good salmon out there and my favorite is Wild Planet. It is sustainably fished and oh so good, you should give it a try.
-
Step 4Different salmon brands come in slightly different tins, some are 5 ounces (140g), some are more, some are less. Do not overthink it. Whatever the size, just chuck it in the bowl, and leave the rest of the ingredients the same.
-
Step 5Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
-
Step 6Place a rack in the middle position and preheat the oven to 400f/205c).
-
Step 7Add the salmon and the remainder of the ingredients into a bowl.
-
Step 8Gently mix until combined, but do not mix into a mush.
-
Step 9You could use a fork or spatula, but I prefer the chef’s best tools, their hands.
-
Step 10Take half the mixture, and use your hands to form into a ball, and press into a patty Do the same for the other half.
-
Step 11Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and place into the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove, gently flip over, and bake an additional 5 minutes, or until golden brown.
-
Step 12If you use a rack in the baking sheet, you will not have to flip them over.
-
Step 13PLATE/PRESENT
-
Step 14Serve on a bed of greens or steamed rice, with some tartar sauce and a few lemon slices. Enjoy.
-
Step 15Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
