Salmon, White Bean & Dill Fishcakes

A big thank you goes to my friend Angela Phillips-Gow for finding this lovely recipe on Diabetes AustraliaThese dill fishcakes taste as good as they look. Delicate yet flavorsome, they are even more delicious when served with lemon juice-flavored yoghurt and finely chopped chives. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

  • 500g (just over one pound) best market value skinless salmon
  • 1 teaspoon tiny salted capers, rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped dill or parsley, plus extra to serve
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 400g (one 15 oz can) tin butterbeans, drained and rinsed
  • sea salt flakes and freshly ground pepper
  • 1 cup (175g) fine burghul (bulgur)
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) olive oil
  • Lemon wedges

Preparation:

Roughly cut the salmon into chunks, check for fine bones and put in a food processor with the capers, dill, mustard, butterbeans, salt and pepper, and pulse until just combined.

Shape the mixture into patties using about 1/3 cup of the mixture for each, and press into the burghul to coat.

Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat.

Cook the fishcakes in batches, adding more oil as necessary, for about 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove and drain the fishcakes on paper towel.

Blessed be... and happy cooking!
