Walleye Cakes

I have seen a lot of recipes for walleye fish, but they all seem to be breaded and deep-fried or battered and deep-fried or just baked. So I figured if you can make fish cakes tasty with salmon and so on, why not post a recipe for walleye cakes?

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 cup cornflake crumbs

  • 1 cup dry bread crumbs

  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 18 ounces skinless, boneless walleye fillets

  • 8 baby carrots, finely chopped

  • 1 zucchini, finely chopped

  • 2 small onions, finely chopped

  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced

  • 2 large eggs, beaten

  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard

  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ground black pepper to taste

  • 3 tablespoons butter

Directions

  1. Combine cornflake crumbs, bread crumbs, and flour in a shallow dish; set aside.

  2. Grind walleye fillets, or chop finely and place in a mixing bowl. Add carrots, zucchini, onions, garlic, eggs, dry mustard, lemon juice, and salt. Season with black pepper. Mix with your hands until evenly combined.

  3. Form walleye mixture into 1/3-cup cakes, each about 3/4 inch thick, and press into cornflake mixture. Set walleye cakes on a baking sheet in a single layer; do not stack.

  4. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook walleye cakes in batches until firmed and golden brown on each side, about 8 minutes per side.
