Salmon Croquettes With Fresh Salmon Recipes

SALMON CROQUETTES WITH FRESH SALMON

Steps:

• Finely chop the salmon using a food processor.
• Transfer salmon to a bowl with baking mix, onion, bell pepper, parsley, egg, garlic, Worcestershire, seasoned salt, and seafood seasoning. Mix until the ingredients are well blended.
• Form the mixture into 8 small patties, and place onto a plate lined with waxed paper. If you are struggling to form the patties due to the mixture being sticky, rinse your hands after forming every few patties, as the mixture is easier to work with while your hands are clean. Refrigerate the patties for 30 minutes.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place the cornmeal into a shallow dish and dredge each patty in the cornmeal, pressing lightly so that the cornmeal adheres to both sides of the patties.
• Working in batches, cook the patties in the oil until golden and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side.

FRESH SALMON CROQUETTES

Steps:

• Combine salmon, 1/8 cup mayonnaise, bread crumbs, green onion, egg white, lemon juice, and Cajun seasoning in a bowl. Mix well and shape mixture into 1/2-inch thick patties.
• Heat butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add patties and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Combine 1 tablespoon mayonnaise and Dijon mustard together in a bowl. Serve sauce with croquettes.

FRESH SALMON CROQUETTES

Steps:

• Put the salmon through the medium blade of a meat grinder into a large bowl. Lacking a meat grinder, chop the salmon by hand or place it in a food processor and pulse briefly until chopped medium fine, then transfer it to a bowl. Be careful not to chop the fish too fine or the croquettes will be dry.
• To the salmon add the bread crumbs, cream, shallots, garlic, herbs, mustard, eggs, lemon juice, Tabasco, salt, and pepper. Using your hands or a wooden spoon, mix thoroughly. Form the mixture into six burgerlike patties, each about 3/4 inch thick. Spread about 1/2 cup flour on a plate and dip the patties, one at a time, in it to coat on both sides, shaking off any excess.
• Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat; it should be hot enough so a sprinkle of flour sizzles on contact. Add the butter to the hot oil and, as soon as it has melted, add the salmon croquettes and fry until cooked through and golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes per side.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer the croquettes to paper towels to drain, then serve immediately.

SALMON CROQUETTES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Mix all of the ingredients, except cornmeal, in a large bowl. Using your hands, form the salmon mixture into small balls, and then roll the balls in cornmeal. Spray a cookie sheet with nonstick spray, arrange the balls on the cookie sheet, and flatten each ball on the surface.
• Bake for 25 minutes or until browned. Serve hot.

SALMON CROQUETTES

Steps:

• Drain the salmon well and place in a large mixing bowl.
• Lightly beat the eggs in a separate bowl.
• To the bowl with the salmon, add the bell pepper, onion, Greek yogurt Worcestershire, kosher salt, pepper, celery salt, hot sauce, parsley, and beaten eggs.
• With a fork, mix until evenly combined.
• Place the cornmeal in a shallow dish (a pie plate works well). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and place it near the cornmeal.
• Shape the salmon mixture into 8 patties, then lightly coat both sides of each in the cornmeal. To shape the patties, squeeze lightly with your hands discarding a little bit of liquid that may come out of the patties. Press them together gently but with enough force so that they hold together. The patties will feel loose, wet, and delicate; be patient and do your best, they'll cook up fine! Place the patties on the baking sheet as you go.
• Cover the pan with plastic and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 1 day.
• While the patties chill, prepare the dipping sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon, salt, hot sauce, and herbs. Refrigerate if you won't be serving within 30 minutes.
• To cook the patties, heat 1/2 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, swirl the pan, then gently place the first batch of patties in the skillet so that they are not touching (I can fit 4 at a time in my skillet, but you may need to cook additional batches if your skillet isn't large enough). Cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until the outsides are crisp and golden and the interiors are cooked through. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, swirl, then repeat with remaining patties. If at any point the croquettes begin to stick, add more oil as needed. If desired, keep the croquettes warm in a 250 degree F oven between batches. Enjoy hot with dipping sauce.

SALMON-AND-MASHED-POTATO CROQUETTES

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine potatoes and enough cold water to fully submerge them. Bring to a boil. Season with 2 teaspoons kosher salt and boil until potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain; let potatoes cool 5 minutes, then press through a ricer or colander and stir until smooth (or mash until smooth). Transfer to a large bowl; let cool completely.
• Stir egg yolks, scallions, lemon zest and juice, flour, 2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper into mashed potatoes. Fold in salmon. Form mixture into golf-ball-size rounds, then flatten into 1/2-inch-thick disks. Transfer to a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours or, loosely covered, up to 1 day.
• Whisk whole eggs in a shallow bowl and season with kosher salt and pepper. Place panko in another shallow bowl and season. Pour a scant 1/2 inch oil into a medium heavy-bottomed skillet, such as cast iron. Heat over medium until oil shimmers and bubbles form instantly around a breadcrumb dropped in (350°F on a deep-fry thermometer). Working in batches, dip croquettes in egg, allowing excess to drip back into bowl, then coat in panko, pressing to adhere.
• Fry, flipping once and adjusting heat as needed to maintain a level temperature, until crisp and golden brown, about 5 minutes. Drain on a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet, then sprinkle with flaky salt; keep warm in a preheated 200°F oven while frying the rest. Serve warm, with dipping sauces.

FRESH SALMON PATTIES

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in saute pan, add red bell pepper, garlic and green onion. Cook on medium-low heat for 5 minutes to soften. Cool slightly then add to a bowl with the chopped salmon, mashed potatoes, egg, sun-dried tomatoes, salt and lemon pepper. Mix thoroughly then form into patties (about 6-8). Place patties in a dish with the panko bread crumbs, turn patties to coat with crumbs. Refrigerate or freeze for later. To serve, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in pan, add thawed patties and cook on medium-low heat until golden brown -- approx 6 minutes each side until salmon is cooked through. Serve with a dab of good tarter sauce and lemon wedges.
