Salmon Cakes

These were delicious!  Great use of leftovers.  I served them with the Peruvian Green Sauce (see recipe for Peruvian Chicken with Green Sauce)  

Makes 6 good-sized cakes

3/4 lb cooked salmon (or 1 can canned salmon)

1 egg

1/4 c mayonnaise

1 c mashed potatoes

1/4 c diced red onions

1 cup panko, divided

1 tablespoon capers

1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning

1 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 c cooking oil

Mix all ingredients except 1/2 cup of the panko, divide into 6 portions and form each into a 'burger'.  roll in remaining panko.  Heat cooking oil to medium in a skillet and fry the burgers until brown and crusty, about 6-8 minutes.  Serve with sauce of your choice -- a hollandaise or béarnaise is nice, or try the Peruvian Green Sauce to add a little zip.
