If you remember our home when we bought it 2 years ago, we were surrounded by solid wood inside. Now an all-white kitchen, this indeed is my happy place! It’s functional, bright, and cheery! I do love my friend Melissa’s white kitchen, too.

Although I don’t always cater to diets, I do try to cook simple meals for company. Salmon, steak, salad, possibly a side veggie.

Ingredients

For salmon cakes:

  • 14.75 oz canned salmon
  • 1 tsp. ginger grated
  • 1 bunch green onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp. coriander
  • 2 tsp. chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 tsp. fish sauce
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 Tbsp. olive oil

For Avocado Garlic Aioli:

  • 1/2 ripe acavado mashed
  • 1/4 cup soy free mayonnaise, Veganaise
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder

Instructions

  • Drain salmon and place in large bowl, removing any noticeable bones. Separate so fish is a fine texture. Add in ginger, green onion, coriander, chill powder, pepper, a pinch of salt, fish sauce, and eggs. Mix completely.

  • Roll salmon mixture into 2-3 inch balls and place on parchment paper.

  • In medium pan, heat about 2 Tbsp olive oil on medium-high heat (but don’t burn the oil). Place fish cakes around the circumference of pan, pressing down with two fingers on the top of each ball to flatten it slightly.

  • Cook for 2-3 minutes before carefully flipping. Cook for about 5 more minutes on low-medium heat, before removing from pan. Repeat this until all fish cakes are cooked.

  • For the Avocado Garlic Aioli sauce, in a small bowl, mash avocado. Add lemon juice, garlic powder, and mayonnaise. Mix well.

  • Serve salmon cakes hot with Avocado Garlic Aioli
