Crispy Salmon Hash

Ingredients
  • 4 russet potatoes
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/3 cup Philadelphia Light Cream Cheese
  • 1 Tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 Tbsp fresh dill
  • 2 green onions
  • 1 tin good quality salmon
  • 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
Directions
  1. Peel, cube, and boil the potatoes and 2 cloves of garlic in salted water until tender (app 8-10 minutes)
  2. Drain and mash the potatoes and garlic. Add cream cheese, mayo, mustard, onions, and dill. Stir well until creamy and well incorporated. 
  3. Drain salmon and remove skin and bones. Add to potato mixture and stir well.
  4. Heat olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium high. Add potato mixture to pan and, using a spatula, flatten like a pancake. Reduce heat to medium and cook about 3 minutes until bottom begins to get golden and crispy. Break salmon mixture up and re-flatten. Continue to repeat this process for about 10- 15 minutes until hash is golden and crispy all the way through. 
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve with apple sauce.
