Ingredients

2 cups leftover coarsely flaked salmon
2 tablespoons seasoned dry bread crumbs
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon ground cumin
6 tablespoons light mayonnaise, divided
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
2 teaspoons wasabi paste
1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

In a medium bowl, gently combine the salmon, bread crumbs, egg, cilantro, cumin, and 2 tablespoons of the mayonnaise until combined. Shape mixture into 4 patties, each about 1-inch thick.

In small bowl, add the sesame oil and wasabi paste to the remaining 1/4 cup mayonnaise and mix well. Set aside.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the salmon cakes and cook until golden brown and cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes per side.

Serve the cakes with sesame-wasabi cream spooned over the top (1 tablespoon per salmon cake).

Good cakes, not a fan of the wasabi sauce.
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

I thought the cakes alone were great! We used left over steelhead which worked wonderfully. Thought the wasabi cream sauce... was too spicy and didn't really like the flavor. Read more

Excellent
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I am not a Salmon fan, but my wife loves Salmon. I bought and cooked more than I should have and we had two large filet... portions left over. The next day I made the Salmon Cakes with the Sesame-Wasabi Cream and they turned out fantastic. Even I enjoyed them!!!! The Sesame-Wasabi Cream is a must. I added a bit more wasabi paste for the additional zing. Thanks Robin, great job.Read more
