Now I have to be honest here… this is my mum’s recipe! I grew up eating these salmon patties so every time I eat them it brings me back to my childhood.
I've just tweaked a few things including the addition of mixed herbs and using sweet potato. The original recipe used white potato so that's a great option for an alternative (remember there's nothing wrong with it, I just LOVE the taste of sweet potato).
Prep time: 30 mins
Cook time: 20 mins
Total time: 50 mins
Yield: 12 patties (4 servings)
Cut sweet potato into small cubes and steam for 7 – 8 minutes, or until soft. Transfer into a large bowl and allow to cool, then mash the potato.
Dice the onion into small pieces then add to the mashed sweet potato along with the egg, salmon, seasoning and salt and pepper and mix well.
Using a tablespoon, roll into approximately 12 balls, place on a baking tray and flatten. Lightly cover in almond meal (or omit if making them nut free).
