So, I got a little bored with myrecipes.com and decided to search Pinterest for some salmon cakes. Can I just say…it’s really annoying to have 80billion people pin the same stupid thing with NO FECKIN DESCRIPTION!! JEBUS!
These intrigued me because of the hash brown usage. I’m thinking I might alter this and make a salted cod cake recipe from it. (Google Bacalhau)
I’m also thinking Egg Beaters is not a good binder for recipes like this. I used that instead of the eggs in the recipe. My salmon cakes never hold together when I cook them. They always fall apart. *shrugs*
I really wanted the hash browns to be crispy. This would require more oil than I wanted to use. The more I thought about, the more I think I should just flash fry them in the pan then let them finish cooking in the oven. LOVED the onions in them for some reason. Not like I don’t put onions in my cakes, but they really were good in this recipe and I think the potatoes had a lot to do with that.
This is a definite try again. They weren’t too bad for lunch the next day either. We had a nice tossed salad with them. It was a nice light meal.
