Summer Salmon Cakes with Courgette Fennel Slaw

These vibrant salmon cakes offer a sophisticated yet simple way to enjoy fresh fish during the warmer months. By combining tender salmon fillets with crunchy crackers and grated courgette, you create a light, textured patty that is full of savoury flavour. The addition of grainy mustard and a hint of cayenne pepper provides a gentle warmth that perfectly complements the rich oils of the fish.

As a high-protein option, this dish is ideal for a nutritious midweek dinner or a leisurely weekend lunch. The accompanying slaw, featuring thinly sliced fennel and crisp courgette, brings a bright acidity and crunch to the plate. It is a wonderful alternative to traditional potato-based fishcakes, keeping the meal feeling fresh and seasonal while remaining incredibly satisfying.
