Fish on a Dish

My husband loves fly fishing, primarily because if he does it right, he doesn’t have to eat what he catches. Here’s one of the few ways he actually likes eating fish:

Salmon Cakes

1 large can red salmon
3 to 4 slices whole wheat bread (Don’t use the heel!)
2 eggs, slightly beaten
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
3 to 4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Drain salmon and remove bones and skin. Place in a large bowl and flake with a fork. Grate the bread into crumbs and add to salmon.  Combine remaining ingredients except butter in the bowl with the salmon and stir until it resembles a lumpy dough. Shape into six patties. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat and fry salmon cakes about 2 minutes on either side. Serve immediately with lemon, tartar sauce, or sweet chili sauce.
