How to make 'Smoked Salmon Fish Cakes'
To make the dipping sauce, simply combine the ingredients in a large bowl.
To make the fish cakes, begin by mixing all the ingredients apart from the breadcrumbs in a large bowl and roughly mashing them together with a potato masher.
Using a tablespoon, divide the mixture into 16 golf-ball-sized lumps. Place the breadcrumbs in a bowl. Take each fishy ball and press it down into the breadcrumbs to coat it.
Heat the oil or butter over medium heat and shallow fry the fish cakes (in batches if necessary) until golden brown.
Serve with the dipping sauce.
