Meal No. 2970: Salmon Croquettes with Garlic-Chili-Lime Aïoli

Last Sunday night's meal was a deliberate conjuring from intentional leftovers: the abundance of salmon from a couple of days prior was perfect for transforming into salmon croquettes, which had been MIA for just a little while. Or for too long, as might be one's conclusion after diving into them. A way-garlicky chili-lime aïoli proved amazing, together with a fresh batch of wonderfully-roasted asparagus cuts...also well garlicked, I might add.


Recipe sent to me by my sister Allison, who cracked up when I asked about the source: adapted from "Salmon Burgers" (p. 396) and "Herb Sauce" (p. 395), from Denise Austin, Shrink Your Female Fat Zones, Rodale Books (2003).

"Chili-Lime Aïoli," from David Wald of Princeton, NJ, May 2009.
