1. Preheat oven to 350F. 2. Bake the potatoes for 1 to 1-1/2 hours.
Cool slightly. Scoop the flesh from the skins; place in a bowl and
mash. Let cool completely. 3. Mix the potato with the lemon juice,
lemon zest, dill, and parsley. Gently mix in the salmon. Fold in the
egg whites. 4. Form the mixture into 12 salmon patties, 2 inches in
diameter and 1/2-inch thick. 5. Heat a large saute pan over
medium-high heat. Spray or wipe with canola oil. Fry the salmon
cakes for 5 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Serve
immediately with lemon wedges or Mustard-Dill Sauce on the side.
Serves 4.
Author’s note: Mashed potatoes and egg whites lighten these nicely.
You can use fresh cooked salmon, of course, but nobody would ever
know they’re made with canned.
