Chef-Inspired Salmon Cakes
On a recent lunch visit to a favorite Cleveland restaurant, L’Albatros Brasserie, I ordered the salmon cakes. They were served on a bed of mesclun with a simple lemon and olive oil vinaigrette. The salmon cakes were so good, I had to try making them at home.
Use that Leftover Salmon
We had leftover grilled salmon from dinner the night before. I flaked it with a fork, then mixed it with the ingredients listed below.
Delicious, and I stayed within my carb limits for the day, so double good!
This recipe is easy, and low-carb. To make it gluten-free, just substitute gluten-free bread crumbs. You can use bottled vinaigrette, or make your own by mixing olive oil and lemon juice 2 to 1, and adding salt and pepper to taste. If the dressing is a bit sharp, sprinkling in some sugar will help.
