Method
step 1
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat with the onion, pepper, garlic and a big pinch of salt. Cook gently for 10 mins until softened but not coloured. Stir in the cajun seasoning, cook for another minute and tip into a bowl to cool.
step 2
Put the salmon into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Tip into the cooled onion mixture, along with the breadcrumbs, 2 tbsp of mayo and plenty of seasoning. Form into 8 small patties and put onto a tray.
step 3
Mix together the remaining mayo and the hot sauce.
step 4
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Cook the fishcakes for 4-5 mins on each side or until caramelised and cooked through. Serve with the hot sauce mayo.
