Salmon Potato Cakes with Dill & Lime Mayonnaise

In case you hadn´t noticed, I really enjoy cooking food at home. I love it more when I can have a meal prepared, cooked and enjoyed in less than an hour. If you want to save on time, then this dish is a winner.  If fresh dill isn´t easy to come by, dried dill should work fine with the potato cakes.  Alternatively, a little chopped leek or celery will work well as a substitute.
