Note: If you don’t like it so spicy or if kids are eating with you, replace the chilies with tomato peppers from a jar (2-3 strips).
Remove the seeds from the chilli peppers and chop coarsely. Peel shallots and chop coarsely.
Both in a mixing cup form and with whipped cream and egg finely grind.
Roughly chop the salmon fillet and mince in an electric chopper [or by hand]. Sprinkle with salt and mace, then add the cream mixture, mix well.
Mix bread crumbs, lemon zest, and dill well in a small baking bowl, then gradually work into salmon mixture.
Grease a muffin tin with the lard. Divide the salmon mixture by tablespoons [heaping tbsp] evenly among the muffin tins. Using the back of a teaspoon, press the mixture firmly until smooth.
Bake in a heated oven at 175 degrees for about 30 minutes or until the top is brown and crispy.
Tastes great as a salmon burger with onion, cucumber, tomato, remoulade, but also plain with buttermilk ranch dressing. For a buffet, decorate with a dab of horseradish cream.
