Servings 8 small or 6 medium cakes

Ingredients

  • 1 pack of The Spice Tailor Classic or Spicy Tandoori Marinade Kit
  • 2 around 270 g salmon fillets, cut into half, horizontally (for more surface
  • area)
  • 240 g floury potatoes boiled or microwaved until soft and roughly mashed
  • 1 tbs mayonnaise plus 11/2 tbs extra for the dipping sauce
  • 2 tbs. dried breadcrumbs
  • Small fistful finely chopped coriander plus a little extra for the dipping sauce
  • 3 tbs. finely chopped red onion
  • 2 tsp. ginger grated or finely chopped
  • 1-2 tbs. vegetable oil for cooking

Instructions

  • Marinate the salmon in the tandoori paste from the pouch while you preheat
    the grill.
  • Lay the salmon on a lightly greased or foil-covered baking tray.
  • Place under a preheated hot grill on the top shelf and grill for 3-4 minutes until
    charred and cooked. Once done, sprinkle over some of the tandoori
    seasoning from the sachet and set aside to cool.
  • In a large bowl, add the potatoes, onion, coriander, ginger, crumbs, 1 tbs.
    mayo and then flake in the fish. Mix really well, taste and adjust seasoning
    (you can add more of the tandoori seasoning instead of some of the salt) and
    form into 8 cakes.
  • Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and add the cakes. Cook over a
    low-medium heat until golden on both sides, around 3 minutes on each side.
    Drain on kitchen roll.
  • Mix the remaining mayonnaise with the mint chutni from the little pouch and
    the extra fresh chopped coriander. Serve with the salmon cakes.
