Ingredients
•
1/4 cup mayonnaise
•
1 tablespoon Sriracha
•
1 pound skinless salmon fillets, cut into 1-inch pieces
•
1/3 cup almond flour
•
1 large egg, lightly beaten
•
1 green onion, coarsely chopped
•
1 1/2 teaspoons seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
•
cooking spray
•
1 pinch seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
Directions
1
Make Sriracha mayo: Whisk together mayonnaise and Sriracha in a small bowl. Place 1 tablespoon Sriracha mayo in the bowl of a food processor and refrigerate the rest until ready to use.
2
Prepare salmon cakes: Add salmon, almond flour, egg, green onion, and 1 1/2 teaspoons seafood seasoning to Sriracha mayo in the bowl of a food processor; pulse quickly for 4 to 5 seconds until ingredients are just combined, but small chunks of salmon remain. (Do not overprocess as the mixture will become mushy.)
3
Line a plate with waxed paper and spray hands with cooking spray. Form salmon mixture into 8 small patties; transfer to the plate. Place in the refrigerator until chilled and firm, about 15 minutes.
4
Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
5
Remove salmon cakes from refrigerator. Mist both sides with cooking spray and gently place in the air fryer basket, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
6
Cook in the preheated air fryer for 6 to 8 minutes. Place on a serving platter and serve with remaining Sriracha mayo and a light sprinkling of Old Bay seasoning.
