Salmon Cakes With Aioli
Salmon Cakes With Aioli
Description
Thanks to infused oil and other zesty seasonings, you can once again enjoy the garlicky flavor of Italian aioli. This low-FODMAP salmon dish is high in protein and tummy-friendly herbs and spices. The capers add a subtle saltiness and the little bit of sweet potato won’t overload your system with sugar. What’s not to like?

Directions
Directions for salmon cakes:
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Place all of the salmon cake ingredients in a large bowl. Combine ingredients with a fork.
- Form 3-inch patties from the salmon mixture and place the patties on a baking sheet. Bake at 350 F for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping the patties over about midway through the baking time. Finished patties should be firm with browned edges.
Directions for aioli:
- In a food processor or blender, process the egg yolk, mustard and half of the lemon juice. Blend until the mixture begins to thicken.
- Slowly add the infused oil to the mix. You’ll want to do this gradually to avoid developing a runny dressing.
- Add a little oil as the mixture thickens, then process again. When the sauce thickens again, add a little more oil. Repeat this process until all the oil is added and the ingredients are combined. The resulting aioli should have a thick and creamy texture?
- Place the remaining lemon juice, parsley and dill in the blender. Add salt to taste. Place the aioli in a serving bowl and serve with the salmon cakes.
