Step 1
Place the salmon, quinoa, eggs, garlic, lemon zest, green peppers, and black pepper in a large bowl. Season to taste with sea salt and mix well until fully incorporated.
-
Step 2
Divide the mixture into eight equal-sized portions. Gently form each portion into a patty-like shape. Place the cakes on a plate and chill in the fridge for about 15 minutes.
-
Step 3
Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Gently place the cakes in the pan and fry for 4 minutes on each side,
until golden brown and cooked through.
Do this in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Remove from the heat and serve hot with lemon wedges and a watercress salad.GRAIN EXCHANGE
