Step By Step

Instructions

1
Preheat oven to 400°F.
2
Remove the skin from the salmon filet. To do this, place a paper towel on top of a cutting board and then place salmon filet skin-side down on the paper towel to keep it from slipping. Use a sharp knife to make a cut between the flesh and skin at a corner of the filet, then holding down the separated skin, glide the knife between the rest of the flesh and skin. Discard skin.
3
Roughly chop salmon filets or pulse in food processor for 1 minute.
4
Combine all ingredients except avocado oil in a large mixing bowl and mix together.
5
Portion salmon mix to desired size eg. 6 portions of 2oz each, roll into a ball, then flatten slightly to make a cake.
6
Preheat large skillet over medium-high heat. Once skillet is hot, add avocado oil and sear both sides of salmon cake for 2 minutes on each side, or until golden-brown.
7
Place seared salmon cakes on baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes.
8
Serve and enjoy with a squeeze of fresh lemon!
