Crunchy Creole Salmon Sweet Potato Bites

January 17, 2018 by Lovoni +

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

Serve these Crunchy Creole Salmon Sweet Potato Bites as a nice little starter with some bubbles & beer or gobble them up with a simple artisan salad. They’re crispy, a little spicy, inexpensive & simple to make. Oh & they’re served with a creamy, lemony horseradish sauce. Crunchy Creole Salmon & Sweet Potato Bites

Coat anything in breadcrumbs, then cook until uber crunchy & I will eat it – ie: Rocky Mountain oysters also known as, bulls’ balls. I survived on those for a couple of months in Cody, Wyoming several years ago. They were deep-fried, these little chaps are not. I lightly coated a non-stick pan in olive oil & let them do their thing. Some got a little dark but it was a kitchen miracle I didn’t actually burn any of them. It’s been quite the week with my mum rushed to hospital two nights ago & my mother-in-law very ill in hospital. My husband has just left to go & see her, I feel this will be the last time. She won’t know he & his brother are there, sadly. Life, it goes on. 

Crunchy Creole Salmon & Sweet Potato Bites

These crunchy bites are wholesome & simple. Needed today. So serve them on a little old board like I did here. Or if a little more decorum is more your style…

You might want to opt for some plates. 

Crunchy Creole Salmon & Sweet Potato Bites

I like serving them on some brown paper covered in a bit of waxed paper, scattering some lemon wedges about, cracking open something cold to drink & letting everyone help themselves. These crunchy, sweet, hot bites are made for sharing. They’re addictive on their own or even just a squeeze of lemon juice but I served them with this deliciously easy mayo horseradish sauce…

And if you happen to be lucky enough to score leftovers, they’re just as good cold. Try them & let me know if you love them as much as we do in our house. Toodles, Lovoni xo. Oh & if you loooooove salmon as much as I do these days, then you’ll want to try Quick Asian Fishcakes or Smoked Salmon & Avocado Wasabi Bowl (soooooo yummy!!)

Ingredients
  1. LEMONY HORSERADISH DIPPING SAUCE
  2. 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  3. 2 tablespoons horseradish cream
  4. 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  5. SALMON & SWEET POTATO BITES
  6. 1 lb (453g) sweet potatoes, peeled & cut into chunks
  7. 1 tablespoon olive oil, plus extra
  8. pinch salt & pepper
  9. 1/2 cup diced onion
  10. 1 green bell pepper (capsicum), diced
  11. 1 jalapeno pepper, diced
  12. 2 garlic cloves, minced
  13. 1 1/2 tablespoons Creole seasoning
  14. 14 oz (398g) can wild salmon, drained
  15. 1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
  16. 3 eggs
  17. 1 2/3 cups seasoned panko breadcrumbs
  18. lemon wedges & chopped fresh parsley, to serve
Instructions
  1. To make the sauce: Combine all ingredients in a small bowl; set aside in the fridge.
  2. To make the sweet potatoes: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss sweet potato with 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil & a pinch of salt & pepper. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes or until cooked & caramelized a little, stirring once during cooking. Tumble the sweet potato into a medium bowl & using a potato masher, mash until there are no large lumps.
  3. Heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook onion, green pepper, jalapeno & garlic for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until softened; add to sweet potato. Wipe out the frying pan & set aside for later.
  4. Add Creole seasoning, very well drained salmon (remove the bone if you want, it’s soft enough to mash though), parsley, 1 lightly beaten egg & 2/3 cup of breadcrumbs & stir until very well combined. Cover & refrigerate for 15 minutes. Roll the mixture into 16 balls, pressing the mixture together as you shape it (about a scant 1/4 cup). Place on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet & gently press down on each ball to make patties about 1/2 inch (12mm) thickness.
  5. Lightly beat the remaining eggs in a shallow bowl. Dip each patty in egg & remaining breadcrumbs.
  6. Drizzle some olive oil into the same frying & heat over medium-high. Cook patties in batches, about 5 minutes per side until browned. Remove to paper towel; keep warm in the oven (these are also delicious served cold). Serve sprinkled with dipping sauce. Garnish with parsley & lemon wedges if desired. Makes 16.

And then there was none. My sis & I lost our fathe And then there was none. My sis & I lost our father, my niece her Pa, quite suddenly on August 1st. Almost four months after the death of our mum John decided it was time to join her. The heartache feels unbearable. John was a true gourmand - a fierce cook. He introduced us to spicy Indian curries, Southeast Asian cuisines, the tastes of Morocco, Chinese delicacies, Greek food & so many other cuisines opening up a world filled with flavour to our young palates. 
Keeper of secrets; fiercely loyal to his family & those he held dear & the most trustworthy person you’d ever meet. I know he’s somewhere better, free from pain & he’s with mum. He’s enjoying a beer, an old red wine to wash down the curry. Then a bowl of ice cream - a big bowl because why not. He’ll smile his wide grin & his bright blue eyes will light up. He could be a grumpy bugger at times but we even loved that side of him. Every time I pick up a knife to start another recipe John, you’ll be there with me. Thank you for marrying our mum & choosing us as your daughters. I hope you know how much you were loved & what a huge impact you had on our lives. You’ll be missed more than you could imagine xo.

Broccoli Bacon Salad: easy AF to make & loaded wit Broccoli Bacon Salad: easy AF to make & loaded with all the right flavours & texture combos, regardless of the time of year, you’ll want to make this salad over & over. You’re going to have to trust me on this one. It’s very good. Lots of nuts & seeds, crispy bacon & dried cranberries tossed in the most delicious sweet mustard vinaigrette. I’m not a leftovers fan but this is even good the next day. Head to freshhunger.com for the recipe. L xo

Each day the veggie garden gives forth its bounty. Each day the veggie garden gives forth its bounty. Today was a quick harvest. I need to hurry up & shake this Covid beast so I can throw myself back into some enjoyable cooking again. 
My horrible trip to France was cut short - thank god but left me with Covid. The fucking cherry on top of what was a low point on my radar. I can hardly believe it happened but one dusts off, moves on & let’s those who like to bring others down fall by the wayside. 
Onwards & upwards. Here’s to a busy rest of the month filled with work I’m passionate about. And a garden that’s flourishing. Gorgeous board from @figsandfetaau

Heading back to My homeland today for mum’s fune Heading back to My homeland today for mum’s funeral. Sadly mum passed away on Wednesday & the world suddenly became less joyful, less stylish & definitely less clean & tidy. Gardens are now less pretty & food not as tasty for mum was both a fabulous cook & had the most beautiful garden. Most of you who might take the time to read this never had the honour of meeting my mum but if you had met her, she would be your friend & confidant for life. She played both mum & dad to my sis & I after our father left but we never seemed to want for anything. She was a shining star who always encouraged me to follow my dreams, even when it meant me moving halfway around the world. That just made us closer. She will be missed by those who love her ♥️
Here are some random pics: the first is mum & I in a tiny church in Drummheller, Alberta, Canada. There is one of mum in her bikini drinking a scotch at Palm Beach in Sydney (snarky me on the left in that pic). The last one is mum as a bridesmaid holding my sister. There’s one with my niece when she was little. I love the one where mum has decorated herself in daisy chains. Good memories.
