INGREDIENTS

For The Salmon Patties:

  • 2 pounds wild salmon skin removed & cubed*
  • ½ cup avocado oil mayonnaise
  • 2 eggs
  • 1.5 teaspoons tamari soy sauce
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1.5 teaspoons stone ground or dijon mustard
  • 3/4 cup almond flour
  • ½ cup cream or almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon each garlic & onion powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons capers
  • 2 teaspoons parsley
  • Kosher salt & pepper
  • Avocado oil


For The Tartar Sauce:

  • 1/2 cup greek or plain dairy free yogurt
  • ½ cup avocado oil mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
  • 1.5 teaspoons dill relish
  • Zest & juice of ½ a lemon
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives finely sliced
  • Kosher salt & pepper


INSTRUCTIONS

  • To a food processor, add all of the salmon patty ingredients(not the oiincluding ¾ teaspoon salt, and a few cracks of pepper. Blend to combine, but keep it just a tad chunky. Chill the salmon mixture in fridge for 30 minutes or up to 4 hours. Pre-heat large non-stick pan just below medium-high heat and wait for it to get hot. Grab enough salmon mixture to form a large golf ball, place in the pan, and press it into a patty using your fingers or a spatula. Add about 4 salmon patties to the pan and allow to cook for about 4 minutes, until deep golden in color. Flip and cook another 3 minutes. Remove salmon patties from pan and repeat with the second batch, adding a bit more oil if needed.
  • Meanwhile, make the tartar sauce by adding all the ingredients to a bowl, mix well, and check for seasoning. You want the flavors to be bright and tangy, so you may need more lemon juice.
  • Serve the salmon patties with the tartar sauce and garnish with more chives. Enjoy!


RECIPE NOTES

  • Ask the fish monger at the store to remove the salmon skin and cut it into 1.5 inch chunks. If using farm raised salmon, make sure it is Norwegian salmon, and only use 1 egg and 1/3 cup of mayonnaise for the salmon patty recipe.
