Homemade Salmon Patties for your toddler

Are you worried when your baby or toddler does not want to eat any fishes? Baby Claire will throw away her slices of fishes onto the floor like some kind of rubbish (Yes, she has this very bad habit of throwing food that she don't like onto the floor!).

Fishes such as salmon are not exactly cheap. A piece can easily cost $10 at the wet market. However, what worries me most is whether she will have enough omega 3 which is important for her brain development.

Google, being one of my good friend came to my mind. I researched recipes from annabel karmel and many others and finally decided to try Jamie Oliver's Fish Cakes recipe because it seem the easiest with the least amount of ingredients. I just need something that I can prepare quickly and check Baby Claire's reaction to this new recipe. The result is YUM YUM!! YUMMY! Even Justin Papa found it delicious!


Ingredients:

1/4 teaspoon of sea salt (optional if you find that too much salt is bad for your kids)
Dashes of Grounded black pepper
300 gram of russet or other mealy potatoes
450 gram of fresh salmon fillet, skin on (You can remove the skin after you have steamed them)
2 tablespoon olive oil
A small bunch Fresh parsley or a few tablespoons of ready-parsely from the shelves
1 tablespoon of flour for the fish, and more extra for dusting
1 beaten egg
2 lemons 

How to cook them? Here we go!



You can use a steamer that can steam more than one food at a go which means you can steam the potato and the salmon at one go :)





And here we have, the nutritious yummy fish patties which Baby Claire and Justin Papa love to eat. I actually made quite a few for freezing. Save time and money for a working mother is very important! 

Do you have any recipes to share with us? Let me know and we can share with our community of new parents :)

Cheers,
