After last month's daring cooks challenge, I am left with lots of leftover powders. It's a shame to throw them all away after all the 'hard work', so I've been trying to incorporate them into my recent dishes. The onion/caper powder is particularly versatile as it is salty - I use it as a salt substitute in pastas, stews, casseroles...Here is a very simple dish seasoned with the onion/ caper powder. And I served it with some home-made sambal belacan!
Ingredients: 6 fish cakes
For coating:
- 1 can (418g) skinless & boneless salmon
- 1 handful coriander - finely chopped
- 6 kaffir lime leaves - finely chopped
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp onion/ caper powder (optional)
- 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Salt
- 1 egg - beaten
- about 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
Directions:
- Mix together salmon, coriander, kaffir lime leaves, egg, onion/caper powder and panko.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Divide salmon mixture into 6 equal portions and shape them.
- To coat, place beaten egg and panko on 2 separate plates.
- One by one, dip the salmon cakes in beaten egg, shake off excess egg then coat the cakes with panko. Shake off excess panko.
- Heat up a bit of oil in a pan.
- Fry the salmon cakes until golden brown (about 2 mins each side).

These salmon cakes look so great! The onion/caper powder sounds like a delicious addition to these.
i love fish cakes... I made slat cod cakes for brunch with a quail egg. I love how they shift you perspective of fish.
Anwyays, it is interesting to see the lime leaf chopped finely as I usually think of it as kept whole.
lookin' good.
Those salmon cakes looks so good. I've been thinking about makes some lately. I just haven't had the time to get me some salmon. I must get me some salmon.
They look great! Excellent use of your leftovers.
Very yummy fish cakes! I must give it a try! Cheers!
These look fantastic, great use for leftovers. I also prefer the panko crumbs to bread crumbs.
Wonderful flavors here with the caper, coriander & onions! Great party snacks:-)
have tried these in a thai restaurant and loved them!
I dont care what anyone says - these should be mine!
This looks like it was served in a restaurant.
Salmons are very tasty. I bet these fish cakes rocks!
These look perfect! I can imagine these tasty cakes in a soft roll to make a delicious sandwich.
I'm also trying to use up what I have in my kitchen instead of just tossing them without care, as I used to do in the past. It may mean being experimental or changing up a recipe but it's nice to know that you make full use of what you already have!
you know, i think the secret to fooling myself into enjoying fish is to put it in cake form. perhaps that'll be my next endeavor. :)
Looks delicious and a great way to use up all the left overs into versatile recipes.
I love salmon cakes, crab cakes, shrimp cakes....and these look great! I love the panko.
Oh! These salmon cakes look terrific...never made fish cake...looking at your, I should really give a try...the pictures are great...yummie looking!
Oh yes! Onion-caper powder in this must be brilliant! I love salmon cakes, they are such a life-saver!
Where does one find caper powder? That is genius!
I always order these from this lounge bar that I visit every week! I can never have enough!!!
They looks so gourmet and lovely! I can just imagine the flavors bursting in my mouth with the sambal belacan!
Those are way fancier than any fish cake I've ever had. They look wicked good!
Yummy looks great! I love salmon. I've had potato cakes before but never salmon cakes. I'll have to try this recipe and see how it turns out. I'm excited!
I don't think I've seen a more beautiful salmon cake.
They look picture perfect! Well done! :D
Great photos. I could probably eat a salmon cake one after another.
I love the idea of the powders that everyone made in that challenge. It's nice to see them used in other applications. I'm always looking for new ways to use salmon. Thanks for the idea!
These salmon cakes look very yummy!!!
These look delicious. I like the addition of kaffir lime leaves. Brilliant.
