Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams salmon fillets
- 50 grams oats
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons spring onion, finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).
Place the salmon fillets on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10 minutes until cooked through. Let them cool slightly.
While the salmon is cooling, grind oats in a food processor or blender until they become a coarse flour. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Once the salmon has cooled, flake it into the bowl with the oats, removing any skin and bones.
Add the egg, lemon zest, lemon juice, chopped parsley, spring onion, and minced garlic to the bowl.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper. Mix all the ingredients together until well combined.
Shape the mixture into patties about 2-3 inches in diameter using your hands.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Cook the patties in the skillet for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and heated through.
Serve the fish patties warm with a side of mixed greens or your favorite salad.
