Salmon Croquettes With Dill Sauce
(from Epicurious by Caroline Randall Williams and Alice Randall)
Original recipe served 8, so this is a half recipe.
Serves 4
Ingredients
3/4 cup plain yogurt or fat-free sour cream
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 sprigs fresh dill, chopped
1 (14.75-ounce) can salmon packed in water (look for a sustainable brand)
2 celery stalks, finely chopped
1/2 large white onion, finely chopped
2 large eggs, beaten
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon pepper
1 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Make the dill sauce by whisking together the yogurt, mustard, and dill in a small bowl. Set aside.
Drain the salmon, and then remove and discard the bones and skin.
Mix the salmon, celery, onion, eggs, salt, and pepper in a good-size bowl.
For a firmer patty, add about 1/3 cup plain dry breadcrumbs to the mix.
Form the mixture into 4 patties.
Slick a medium skillet with the olive oil and heat it over medium-high heat.
Cook the patties until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes per side.
Put a dollop of the dill sauce on top of each patty and serve.
