I made these the other night as I had some salmon to use up and served them over salad it made for a delicious meal. I also made a sour cream herb sauce to accompany them using up some fresh herbs on my fridge. I cooked these on the stove top in a pan but they would also work on the BBQ just as well. You could also serve them in burger buns with some lettuce tomato and avocado.

I made this one last night and it was a wonderful meal a truly company worthy dish with hardly any effort. The potato cakes are great but need to be cooked for a good while to make sure they are cooked all the way through. I loved the sauce that went with and I warmed this on the stove before adding to the plate. If you would like to see more photos of this recipe please click here.
