Test Kitchen tip

You can steam your salmon and flake, or pan fry in a little oil. Fish cakes can be made ahead of time and refrigerated. You can also grill – place on a baking tray lined with lightly greased foil. Spray the fish cakes with oil and place under the grill for 1 to 2 minutes each side or until golden.
