Ingredients

1/2 pound cooked salmon

Good olive oil

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

3/4 cup small-diced red onion (1 small onion)

1 1/2 cups small-diced celery (4 stalks)

1/2 cup small-diced red bell pepper (1 small pepper)

1/2 cup small-diced yellow bell pepper (1 small pepper)

1/4 cup minced fresh flat-leaf parsley

1 tablespoon capers, drained

1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce

1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (opt)

2 teaspoons baharat

1/4 cup chia seeds

1/4 cup good mayonnaise

2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

2 extra-large eggs, lightly beaten

Preparation

Place 2 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons olive oil, the onion, celery, red and yellow bell peppers, parsley, capers, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, baharat, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large saute pan over medium-low heat and cook until the vegetables are soft, approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Cool to room temperature.

Flake the chilled salmon into a large bowl. Add the chia seeds, mayonnaise, mustard, and eggs. Add the vegetable mixture and mix well. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Shape into 10 (2 1/2 to 3-ounce) cakes.
