Ingredients

  • 1 lb salmon fillet, skin removed and cut into chunks 2 large eggs, beaten 1 cup almond flour 1/4 cup finely chopped onion 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh dill 2 tablespoons capers, drained 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon black pepper Olive oil for frying For the Dill Sauce: 1/2 cup mayonnaise 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill 1 tablespoon lemon juice Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the salmon chunks, eggs, almond flour, onion, dill, capers, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to incorporate all ingredients.
  2. Divide the mixture into 6 portions and shape each portion into a patty.
  3. Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Carefully place the patties in the pan and cook for about 4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the pan and let them rest on paper towels to drain excess oil.
  4. For the dill sauce, whisk together mayonnaise, fresh dill, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.
  5. Serve the salmon patties warm with a dollop of dill sauce on top.

Chef’s Insight

The secret to perfect salmon patties is ensuring the fish is broken down into small enough pieces, allowing the mixture to bind together well. Be sure to press the patties gently, so they maintain a tender and moist interior.

Notes

Serve with a side of steamed or roasted vegetables for a complete meal experience.
