Although I do cook barefoot. This can be dangerous. How many falling knives, pots, and hot splashes have I avoided by a quick hop, skip, jump or sidestep?
Dodging a few spatters of hot oil, I do believe I have mastered her salmon cakes.
We were left with a unexpectedly large amount of leftover salmon, due to certain children not being home for dinner. This is happening far too often for me, both the copious leftovers and the lack of children at the table.
But what to do with the leftovers? Salmon Cakes. They were perfection. They were so delicious that Frank requested a repeat for his birthday meal.
A new favorite in my recipe repertoire.
(Also on the plate is Ina's amazingly easy Herbed Basmati Rice and her Tartar Sauce. And the cheaty part--frozen green beans with fried onions on top.)
So thanks for making me look good, Ina. But I'll still come over if you invite me.
oh yes, brilliant and beautiful presentation :)
ReplyDeleteOh my. That looks delicious. I'll be right over.
ReplyDeleteThese look scrumptous. Ina, watch out!
ReplyDeleteBrava!
ReplyDeleteAnd anyone who compares herself to Harriet is someone I automatically reallyreallyreally like.
There is no "cheaty" part. When one has created such a masterpiece of salmon, one can't alsobe expected to create gourmet veggie side-dishes.
ReplyDeleteSalmon.... Mmmmmmm...
ReplyDeleteOil spatters and near-miss knife accidents aside, I also prefer being barefoot in the kitchen.
Love the Harriet M. Welch reference!
