Lena has shared one of her absolute fav recipes!!



SALMON AND BASIL FISH CAKES

Serves 4 / Prep time: 25-min / Cook time: 10-min

Ingredients

3 medium fingerling potatoes (or small white potatoes)

1 fillet wild salmon (about 12 oz)

1 large egg

1/2 cup loose packed fresh basil

2 tbsp all-purpose flour (Lena uses gluten free)

1 tsp salt

Avocado oil to fry with

Directions

Start by boiling the potatoes until fork tender. Once the potatoes are done boiling, drain the water and mash them in a large mixing bowl (no need to take skins off as they give the cakes a more rustic look and you get the nutrients from the skin).


Cut the skin away from the salmon and discard. Chop salmon into bite sized chunks and mash the meat into the potato. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.


Heat avocado oil in large skillet on medium heat. Form 4 patties out of your potato/salmon mix and place in pan.


Cook each side for about 5 minutes or until golden brown being careful not to burn it (they will cook fast). Flip over and cook other side for another 5 minutes and voila, restaurant worthy fish cakes! 


Enjoy!

This salmon basil fish cakes recipe sounds absolutely delicious and really approachable for everyday cooking. I like how it focuses on fresh ingredients and simple steps, making it something anyone can try at home without feeling overwhelmed. Meals like this are perfect for maintaining a healthy lifestyle while still enjoying good flavour. It also made me think about how paying attention to detail matters in different areas of life, especially when I was working on my Safeguarding And Protecting Vulnerable Individuals Assignment, where clarity and care were so important. In the same way, following a recipe properly brings the best results. I also found New Assignment Help UK really useful when I needed guidance, as it helped me stay organised…

These salmon and basil fish cakes are exactly the kind of recipe I didn't know I needed! I love how Lena keeps it so approachable — boiled potatoes, fresh basil, wild salmon, and you've got something that genuinely looks restaurant-worthy. I tried making them last weekend and the whole family was impressed. What strikes me most is how eating well really does affect everything else in your day — your energy, your mood, your focus. My teenager was actually preparing for gcse english speech topics that morning and mentioned how much better they felt tackling it after a proper, nourishing lunch instead of grabbing something processed. Food really is connected to performance in ways we underestimate. Will definitely be making…
