Salmon Croquettes with Yogurt Horseradish Sauce
A zippy horseradish-infused yogurt sauce enlivens the down-home flavor of crisp croquettes. They’re great hot, at room temperature, or chilled.
Ingredients
Serves: 6
Serving Size: 1 croquette and 2 tablespoons of sauce
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Sauce:
- 1/2 cup fat-free plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley
- 1 tablespoon bottled white horseradish, drained
- 1 tablespoon grated onion
Croquettes:
- 1 (14.5-ounce) can boneless, skinless red or pink salmon, drained and flaked
- 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
- 1/3 cup crushed whole-grain crispbread (lowest sodium available)
- 1/4 cup chopped red onion
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh dillweed or 1/2 teaspoon dried dillweed, crumbled
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions
- In a small bowl, stir together the sauce ingredients. Cover and refrigerate.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the croquette ingredients except the oil. Shape into 6 patties, each about 3 inches in diameter.
