SALMON CROQUETTE SANDWICH

Steps:
- Drain the salmon well and place in a large mixing bowl.
- Lightly beat the eggs in a separate bowl.
- To the bowl with the salmon, add the bell pepper, onion, Greek yogurt Worcestershire, kosher salt, pepper, celery salt, hot sauce, parsley, and beaten eggs.
- With a fork, mix until evenly combined.
- Place the cornmeal in a shallow dish (a pie plate works well). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and place it near the cornmeal.
- Shape the salmon mixture into 8 patties, then lightly coat both sides of each in the cornmeal. To shape the patties, squeeze lightly with your hands discarding a little bit of liquid that may come out of the patties. Press them together gently but with enough force so that they hold together. The patties will feel loose, wet, and delicate; be patient and do your best, they'll cook up fine! Place the patties on the baking sheet as you go.
- Cover the pan with plastic and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 1 day.
- While the patties chill, prepare the dipping sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon, salt, hot sauce, and herbs. Refrigerate if you won't be serving within 30 minutes.
- To cook the patties, heat 1/2 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, swirl the pan, then gently place the first batch of patties in the skillet so that they are not touching (I can fit 4 at a time in my skillet, but you may need to cook additional batches if your skillet isn't large enough). Cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until the outsides are crisp and golden and the interiors are cooked through. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, swirl, then repeat with remaining patties. If at any point the croquettes begin to stick, add more oil as needed. If desired, keep the croquettes warm in a 250 degree F oven between batches. Enjoy hot with dipping sauce.

Steps:
- In a saucepan, combine potatoes and enough cold water to fully submerge them. Bring to a boil. Season with 2 teaspoons kosher salt and boil until potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain; let potatoes cool 5 minutes, then press through a ricer or colander and stir until smooth (or mash until smooth). Transfer to a large bowl; let cool completely.
- Stir egg yolks, scallions, lemon zest and juice, flour, 2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper into mashed potatoes. Fold in salmon. Form mixture into golf-ball-size rounds, then flatten into 1/2-inch-thick disks. Transfer to a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours or, loosely covered, up to 1 day.
- Whisk whole eggs in a shallow bowl and season with kosher salt and pepper. Place panko in another shallow bowl and season. Pour a scant 1/2 inch oil into a medium heavy-bottomed skillet, such as cast iron. Heat over medium until oil shimmers and bubbles form instantly around a breadcrumb dropped in (350°F on a deep-fry thermometer). Working in batches, dip croquettes in egg, allowing excess to drip back into bowl, then coat in panko, pressing to adhere.
- Fry, flipping once and adjusting heat as needed to maintain a level temperature, until crisp and golden brown, about 5 minutes. Drain on a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet, then sprinkle with flaky salt; keep warm in a preheated 200°F oven while frying the rest. Serve warm, with dipping sauces.

Steps:
- Blend cream cheese and smoked salmon in processor until almost smooth, with small salmon bits remaining. Mix in dill, white pepper and hot pepper sauce. Drop salmon mixture by generous tablespoonfuls onto large baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Place flour in small bowl. Dip 1 mound of salmon mixture into flour, coating completely (shake off excess). Using hands, roll mixture into ball. Dip ball into beaten egg, then breadcrumbs, coating completely. Return to baking sheet. Repeat with remaining salmon mixture, flour, egg and breadcrumbs. Cover and refrigerate croquettes until cold, about 20 minutes. Add enough peanut oil to heavy large saucepan to reach depth of 3 inches. Heat to 350°F. Working in batches, fry croquettes until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Using tongs, transfer croquettes to paper towels; drain. Serve warm with lemon wedges.
Tips:
- Choose the right salmon. Fresh, wild-caught salmon is the best option for these croquettes. Look for salmon that is firm and has a bright orange color.
- Don't overcook the salmon. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough. Cook the salmon until it is just cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side.
- Use a good quality cream cheese. The cream cheese is a key ingredient in these croquettes, so it's important to use a good quality brand. Look for cream cheese that is smooth and spreadable.
- Season the croquettes well. Salt and pepper are the basic seasonings for these croquettes, but you can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Fry the croquettes until they are golden brown. Frying the croquettes until they are golden brown will help to create a crispy crust that will hold the croquettes together.
Conclusion:
Baked salmon and cream cheese croquettes are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a party or a weeknight dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that your family and friends will love.
