Notes
These Salmon Sweet Potato Cakes are nearly infinitely adaptable! Here are some flavor combinations to try:
Asian Inspired: add 3 chopped scallions, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro. Serve with Sriracha Mayo or Sesame Mayo.
Mexican Inspired: add 3 chopped scallions, 1 teaspoon Cholula, 1 teaspoon taco seasoning. Serve with Peruvian Green Sauce or Chipotle Mayo.
Mediterranean Inspired: add 1 tablespoon minced onions, 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon dijon mustard, 2 teaspoon rinsed chopped capers or cornichons. Serve with Garlic Mayo or Lemon Mayo.
TIP: To make flavored mayonnaise, a good rule of thumb is 1 teaspoon flavor (e.g. Sriracha, Sesame Oil, Chopped Chipotles in Adobo, Minced Garlic) per 2 tablespoon store bought mayonnaise. Add more mayo or seasoning depending on your personal flavor preference.Serve as small patties with a side salad for more of a "crab cake" feel, or make larger patties to serve on burger buns as salmon burgers.Nutrition information doesn't include any add-ins, sides or buns.
