I was given some Salmon Gravadlax recently by High Country Salmon and while I was in the kitchen on a chilly Saturday with my children, this recipe idea came into my head. Green Pea Fritters with Salmon Gravadlax. I adore fritters and like to include vegetables where possible. These ones have 3 cups of frozen peas so they are full of veg, and also affordable to make. I topped the fritters with tartare sauce and slices of the Salmon Gravaldax.
This recipe uses mainly staple ingredients. Frozen peas, self raising flour, eggs, milk, chopped herbs – I used basil and coriander. I love mint with peas too. It also has salt and pepper and lemon zest.
How to make Green Pea Fritters with Salmon Gravadlax:
We are starting with the self raising flour in a large bowl, making a well and adding whisked eggs and milk. You pour the wet mix right in the middle of the well then add the peas, lemon zest, herbs and seasoning. Mix well.
To check the seasoning, I like to fry off one fritter as a test. Taste this and adjust seasoning if needed. Once you are happy with the flavour, it’s time to cook.
Add a little oil to a non stick pan, add spoonfuls (about 1 tablespoon in size) of mixture to the pan, cook on each side until golden and cooked through. Serve with Tartare, sliced salmon and slices of lemon and a few more herb leaves.
