Method

Ingredients

1. Place the fish in the air-fryer basket and cook for 8 minutes at 180°C.

2. Cool slightly, then flake. Mix the salmon, mash, capers, lemon zest, spring onion, mustard, 1 egg and seasoning.

3. Shape into palm-sized fish cakes. Beat the remaining eggs. Dredge the fish cakes in the flour, egg and panko crumbs.

4. Air-fry at 180°C for 8 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve on the salad leaves topped with the hazelnuts and chives. Drizzle with the dressing.

Cook's tip: You could use canned salmon instead of salmon steaks. Drain 2 cans and combine with the remaining ingredients. Substitute the salmon for trout or haddock
