3 Variations on Salmon Patties
- Salmon Burgers with Green Goddess Dressing
- Pan-Fried Salmon Burgers with Cabbage Slaw and Avocado Aioli
- Smoked Fish Cakes with Root-Vegetable Slaw
With tarragon, dill, capers and lemon, green goddess dressing is the perfect accompaniment to these moist salmon burgers.
Everything is easy to assemble and can be made ahead. All you have to do is pan-fry the burgers just before serving.
Any kind of smoked fish works well for chef Kerry Sear’s fried cakes.
