Ingredients
4 Medium Potatoes
200ml Mayonnaise
Small handful of fresh dill
Small handful of fresh parsely
Small handful of fresh garlic chives
4 Slices smoked salmon
50g Butter
Instructions
Place the mayonnaise in a jug and add the dill, parsley and garlic chives. Using your stick blender, zap this until everything is finely chopped and well combined.
Peel 4 medium potatoes and cut them into 8ths. Boil the potatoes for 20 minutes until soft, then drain and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Add 60ml of the mayonnaise to the potatoes, then mash the potatoes until very smooth.
Using wet hands, pick up a quarter of the potato and form it into a patty about 25mm or 1 inch thick. Repeat this until all 4 patties are formed.
Heat your pan over medium high heat then add 50ml of butter. Fry the patties for 3 to 4 minutes per side until crisp and golden.
Remove the patties from the pan and transfer these to 2 serving platters.
Top each potato cake with a generous sliver of smoked salmon, then top this with some of the herb mayonnaise.
Garnish this with some extra dill and edible flowers and serve immediately.
