Donna Hay's Lime & Lemongrass Salmon Cakes

This is a really simple dish to create but a really impressive one to serve. Just make sure to check that all the bones from your salmon fillet are removed. You wouldn't want to choke on them or spit them out whilst you're eating this dish. Now that certainly would not be impressive!

Recipe adapted from Donna Hay No Time to Cook, page 78

Ingredients


¼ cup whole-egg mayonnaise
1 teaspoons wasabi
½ teaspoon lime juice
2 x180g salmon fillets, cut into 1 cm cubes

1 stalk lemon-grass, finely chopped
3 kaffir lime leaves, shredded
1 long red chilli, seeded and chopped
sea salt and cracked black pepper
