Ingredients:
- 3 medium potatoes
- 1/2 cup long grain rice
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 can (14.75 oz) red salmon, drained
- 1 large egg
- 3 spring onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 large eggs (for coating)
- 2 cups breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons chili sauce (optional, for a spicy kick)
- Cooking oil spray
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 200°C (400°F). This will ensure it’s hot and ready for your Salmon Balls.
-
Prepare Potatoes: Place the potatoes in a large pot of water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, which should take about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and mash them until smooth. Allow them to cool to room temperature.
-
Cook Rice: While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool as well.
-
Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, cooked rice, rolled oats, and red salmon. Add the large egg, finely chopped spring onions, lemon juice, and optional chili sauce. Mix everything thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
-
Shape and Coat Balls: Divide the mixture into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball shape. In a shallow dish, beat the two additional eggs. Place the breadcrumbs in another shallow dish. Dip each ball into the beaten egg, ensuring it is fully coated, then roll in the breadcrumbs to cover evenly.
-
Prepare for Baking: Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking oil spray. Arrange the coated Salmon Balls on the baking sheet, giving them space to cook evenly.
-
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 40 minutes. The Salmon Balls are ready when they are heated through and have turned a golden brown color.
-
Serve: Once baked, remove the Salmon Balls from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve warm with a fresh salad or your favorite dipping sauce.
