Super Simple Salmon Cakes

2 x 418g cans Paramount brand wild alaskan salmon (or another wild alaskan / canadian salmon that isn’t farmed and has those all important fish bones in there for calcium richness up to a kilo would be too. No stress!
1 small purple onion
2 cloves garlic
2 zucchini, grated and then well squeezed with a tea towel to get the water out
1/2 bunch parsley or chives, or coriander if you like an Asian accent
2 tbsp coconut flour (or 3 tbsp your preferred flour) plus a little extra to dust and ‘seal’ the cakes before pan frying.
2 eggs (or flax or chia gel egg replacement for 2 eggs)
1/2 tsp sea salt
1 tbsp dulse flakes (mineral packed super food seaweed flakes available from health store. optional)
1/4 - 1/3 cup macadamia, olive or coconut oil, for frying

Pop zucchini in a food processor and blitz OR grate it. Then remove and squeeze out the water from them with a tea towel around it all- watery fish cakes aren’t cool, so really put your back into this step and get that water out!
Then pop in your purple onion, herbs, garlic cloves, salmon, coconut flour, eggs and salt into a large food processor or thermomix until well combined, then add back the zucchini.
Turn on frying pan to medium, with your oil, topping up with a little more oil if you strt to run low.
Chop some greens of your choosing – peas, snow peas, broccoli, bok choy, asparagus… and have them ready for steaming, when you pop your salmon cakes on.
Now grab salmon mixture and form 1.5 inch round balls and roll briefly through the flour to seal them.
Place them in the pan and flatten with a spatula, cooking 2 minutes both sides and popping in a 180C / 350C oven for keeping hot between batches.
The greens should be on at same time now, to have everything ready together and hot.
Voila. Once all done, pour the steamed veg into the saucepan, and add a good lashing of coconut oil or butter for vitamin absorption (and flavour!) and I love chopped mint through the greens with salmon, but you could do coriander, parsley or dill too. Serve to your hungry hoards. They’ll love it!
