Ingredients (serves 4)

For the dipping sauce: 

• 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, preferably full fat 
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice (or more, to taste) 
• 2 teaspoons finely chopped parsley leaves 
• 3 to 4 chives or 1 scallion, finely chopped 
• Salt to taste 

For the fish cakes: 

• 1 pack of two ChalkStream Trout burgers 
• 1 egg 
• 1 + 1/3 cup breadcrumbs, preferably fresh   
• Oil, for frying 

Preparation

For the sauce:  

• Combine lemon juice and herbs into the yogurt and adjust the salt and lemon juice to taste. Set aside. 

For the fish cakes:  

• Beat the egg and add the burger patties and 1/3 cup breadcrumbs to a large bowl. Mix to combine with a spoon or your hands. *ChalkStream Trout burgers are well-seasoned, so no additional salt or spice is needed.  
• Divide the mixture into 8 small patties.  
• Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a large frying pan until hot but not smoking.  
• Give each patty a quick coating of breadcrumbs and add to the pan.  
• Depending on the size of your pan, you may need to fry the patties in batches. Cook for about three minutes until the crumbs form a nice golden crust, then flip the patties and cook on the other side for 2-3 minutes. Place patties on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any access oil. Serve with dipping sauce.
