2.Remove and discard skin and bones from salmon, then flake flesh into large chunks.
3.Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add cumin and coriander seeds, and chilli flakes; cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until fragrant. Reserve.
4.Add salmon, green onion, half the polenta and half the spiced oil to sweet potato; season. Mix well to combine. Divide mixture into 12 portions; shape into patties. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or for several hours. Coat patties in remaining polenta.
5.Heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Cook patties, in two batches, for 2 minutes each side or until golden and heated through.
6.Place the yoghurt in a small bowl; swirl through remaining spiced oil. Serve cakes with spiced yoghurt.
