Instructions:
-
Prepare Potatoes: Start by peeling the potatoes, cutting them into chunks, and boiling them until tender.
-
Mash Potatoes: Drain the cooked potatoes and mash them until smooth (without adding butter or milk). Allow the mashed potatoes to cool for a few minutes.
-
Cook Salmon and Red Pepper: In a frying pan, heat a little olive oil. Add the red pepper and salmon fillet. Use a fork to break the salmon into pieces and cook until the fish is flaky and the red pepper is soft (approximately five minutes).
-
Season and Combine: Season the mashed potatoes generously with black pepper. Sift the flour over the mashed potatoes and mix it in using a wooden spoon until it disappears. Whisk the egg and add it to the mixture, stirring well. Crumble the feta cheese over the mixture and snip the chives into the bowl. Finally, add the cooked red pepper and salmon, stirring again to combine evenly.
-
Form Patties: Dust your hands with flour and shape the mixture into patties. You can create either 12 cookie-sized patties or 6 larger cakes.
-
Fry Patties: Heat the remaining olive oil in the frying pan until very hot. Carefully place some of the potato cakes into the pan, being careful not to overcrowd it. Fry the patties for three minutes on each side or until they form a thin, crisp layer.
-
Keep Warm: Once cooked, keep the fishcakes warm in the oven while you finish frying the remaining patties.
-
Serve: Serve the Feta Salmon Fishcakes dusted with parmesan cheese and sprinkled with extra chives for garnish.
Additional Notes:
- If you find shaping the patties challenging, you can also simply drop spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the pan for a more irregular but equally delicious result.
