Tip

Annelyse’s tip: this salmon croquette recipe is a great way to use up leftover cold fish.

Instructions

  • Peel the potatoes, dice them, then place them in a saucepan with cold, salted water and bring to the boil. Cook for 10–15 minutes from when the water starts boiling. Drain and then mash with a fork. Leave to cool.

  • Meanwhile, cook the salmon in a frying pan, then slice it thinly.
  • Next, mix the potatoes with the salmon, egg, flour, salt and curry powder. Then shape the mixture into 24 small patties and place them in the freezer for 10 minutes.

  • Next, prepare the sauce: make a mayonnaise using the egg yolk, 1 teaspoon of mustard and 150ml of olive oil. Then add the gherkins and the chopped capers, along with the chervil and some pepper.

  • Heat the 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a frying pan, then fry the patties until golden brown, 3 minutes on each side. Serve with the tartar sauce.
