  1. Cook the potatoes for 15 minutes until tender, then drain and mash with 25g (1oz) of the butter, spring onions and plenty of seasoning. Stir in the fresh salmon and a beaten egg.

  2. Melt the rest of the butter in a large frying pan, then drop six rough spoonfuls of the salmon mixture into the pan and cook gently for 5 minutes on each side until the fish cakes are firm.

  3. Meanwhile, make the salsa. Mix the cucumber with the shallots, capers and fresh dill. Season with salt and add a little olive oil to moisten. Spoon on to plates and serve with the fish cakes, a spoonful of mayonnaise and a side salad.
