These salmon croquette canapés are a delightful addition to any gathering. Imagine perfectly golden mini salmon patties served atop refreshing cucumber slices, each crowned with a tangy lemon aioli. This exquisite finger food offers a symphony of flavors and textures, a delightful dance of crunchy, refreshing, satisfying, creamy, and tangy sensations.

Each canapé is meticulously crafted to be enjoyed in just one or two bites, ensuring a neat and elegant experience. The traditional base of bread or pastry is artfully replaced with a crisp cucumber slice, lending a refreshing twist and lightness to the ensemble. The salmon patty itself is a testament to culinary artistry.

Encased in a delicate crumb coating, it is fried to a perfect golden crisp, offering a satisfying crunch with every bite. The flaky, moist salmon within provides a rich and savory counterpoint to the bright flavors that accompany it. To elevate the canapé further, a dollop of luscious lemon aioli is added.

Its creamy texture and tangy zest complement the richness of the salmon and the freshness of the cucumber, creating a harmonious balance of flavors. A delicate sprig of dill is perched atop each canapé, adding a touch of visual elegance and a hint of herbaceous aroma. The bright green color of the dill provides a beautiful contrast to the golden-brown patty and the creamy aioli, making these canapés as pleasing to the eye as they are to the palate.

These salmon croquette canapés are more than just an appetizer; they are a culinary experience. Their sophisticated flavors and textures are sure to impress your guests and elevate any occasion.

Instructions

    1.
    Drain the canned salmon well and add it to a mixing bowl. Combine with cup almond flour, one egg, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon lemon zest, salt, and garlic powder. Mix all ingredients together until well combined.
    2.
    Slice a cucumber and use it as a reference for the patty size. Divide the salmon mixture into 20 equal portions. Shape each portion into a disc that matches the size of the cucumber slice. Place the shaped patties on a cutting board.
    3.
    Place the remaining almond flour in a separate bowl. Coat each salmon disc carefully with the almond flour, ensuring they are fully covered without distorting their shape. Transfer the coated patties to a plate and place them in the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up.
    4.
    Heat oil in a small pan over medium heat. Carefully add the croquettes to the pan and fry for 3-4 minutes per side, until they are golden brown. Remove the croquettes and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
    5.
    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, tablespoon lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon lemon zest. Whisk together until smooth and creamy. Transfer the aioli to a piping bag for easy application.
    6.
    Slice the cucumber into 20 uniform discs. Divide lettuce leaves into pieces slightly larger than the cucumber slices. Arrange the cucumber slices on a flat surface and pipe a small amount of aioli on each. Add a piece of lettuce on top of the aioli and pipe another small dot of aioli.
    7.
    Place a salmon croquette on top of the lettuce and cucumber base. Pipe a small amount of aioli on top of the croquette. Garnish with a sprig of fresh dill and serve immediately.
