Ingredients

  1. 500g salmon mince
  2. 2 cloves garlic, minced
  3. 1 tsp salt
  4. ½ tsp black pepper
  5. 2 large eggs
  6. 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  7. 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  8. 2 tbsp fresh cilantro or parsley, finely chopped
  9. ¼ red capsicum, finely diced (optional)
  10. 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs (plus extra for coating)
  11. ½ cup plain flour (for dredging)
  12. Vegetable oil (for shallow frying)
  13. Optional: lemon wedges & dipping sauce for serving

Method

  1. Prepare the mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the salmon mince, minced garlic, salt, pepper, eggs, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, and fresh cilantro. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
  2. Add texture: Stir in the panko breadcrumbs, flour, and diced capsicum (if using) to create a mixture that holds together well. Adjust with additional breadcrumbs if the mixture feels too wet.
  3. Shape the croquettes: Using your hands, form the mixture into small patties or oval-shaped croquettes, approximately 6-7 cm in diameter. Place the formed croquettes on a tray lined with parchment paper.
  4. Chill: Refrigerate the croquettes for 20-30 minutes to firm them up, making them easier to handle during cooking.
  5. Heat the oil: In a large non-stick skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until shimmering.
  6. Cook the croquettes: Fry the croquettes in batches, cooking each side for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even cooking.
  7. Drain: Remove the cooked croquettes from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
  8. Serve: Arrange the croquettes on a serving platter and pair with your choice of dipping sauce or side salad. Serve warm and enjoy!

Chef's Tip

Salmon croquettes are all about crisp texture and rich savoury flavour. The salmon mince stays moist and tender inside while the panko coating creates a light golden crunch that makes every bite satisfying. Garlic, herbs, and Worcestershire sauce add depth and balance, while fresh lemon and dipping sauce bring brightness that perfectly complements the richness of the salmon.
