Salmon and Dill Potato Patties

I make these when there isn't much in the cupboard. I substitute the fresh dill for dried... Try these in a burger bun with mayonnaise. Mmmm....

Ingredients

400g potatoes, suitable for boiling, cubed

1/4 cup mayonnaise

425g can salmon, drained, bones removed

1 tbs chopped fresh dill

2 spring onions, thinly sliced

1 egg

1 cup fresh breadcrumbs

1/4 cup oil

Cook the potatoes in a large saucepan of boiling water for 15 minutes or until tender. Drain well and cool.

Transfer the potato to a large bowl, then mash roughly with the back of a spoon, leaving some large chunks. Stir in the salmon, dill and spring onion and season. Mix in the egg and mayonnaise. Divide the mixture into eight portions, forming palm-size patties. Press lightly into the breadcrumbs to coat.

Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and cook the patties, turning, for about 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve with mayonnaise and rocket leaves.
