Ingredients (14)

  • 12 oz skinless boneless salmon
  • 1/4 cup cornmeal
  • 0.25 oz scallions chopped
  • 0.25 oz coriander chopped
  • 1 medium egg beaten
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Cajun seasoning
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup olive oil *
  • 1 tbsp Japanese mayonnaise
  • 1/2 tbsp Heinz ketchup

INSTRUCTIONS

1

Combine 12 oz skinless boneless salmon and 1/4 cup cornmeal together in a food processor.

2

 Grind until they turn to a paste.

3

In a small bowl, combine the salmon-cornmeal mixture with 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper, 1/4 tsp salt, 1 beaten egg, 1/2 tsp Cajun seasoning, 1/4 tsp ground black pepper, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 0.25 oz chopped scallions, 0.25 oz chopped coriander, and 1 tbsp cornstarch.

4

Stir together until the ingredients are mixed well. Try pressing it with your hands to check if it holds together firmly.

5

Shape the above mixture into 12 small patties (about the size of a meat patty for an average burger).

6

Heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Wait until the oil is heated then add the patties to fry. Cook for 1 minute on the first side.

7

Flip and fry for 1 minute for the other side. Flip the patties 2 more times until they're golden brown on both sides. Transfer the patties to a paper towel-lined bowl to drain excess oil.

8

Make the dip: Stir 1 tbsp mayonnaise into 1/2 tbsp Heinz ketchup.

9

Enjoy the salmon patties plain, dip them into the mayo-ketchup sauce, or serve as a side along with the main dish.
