Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl combine salmon, grated zucchini, minced onion, psyllium, egg, salt, and pepper. Stir well with a wooden spoon until all ingredients, particularly salmon, are completely distributed. Break down any salmon lumps with a spoon. Set aside for a few minutes while you make tartar sauce.
- Chop scallion, pickle and dill and in a separate bowl add to mayonnaise, yogurt, whipping cream and horseradish. Add vinegar and salt and pepper. Mix well.
- Heat a frying pan on medium heat. Melt butter and with a wooden spoon drop clumps of fritter mixture (about 1⁄3 cup each) into the pan.
- Press fritter lumps flat with the spoon. Pat together any fraying edges to make nice round fritters. Cook until golden on one side, then flip.
- When cooked, keep warming in a 400°F (200°C) oven while you cook the whole batter.
- Serve with tartar sauce and side salad or vegetable crudités.
