- 4 ounce smoked salmon julienned (3 c.)
- 1 Tbsp. finely-minced green onions

In a medium saute/fry pan heat oil and add in potato mix, forming it into 8 little round cakes. Cook till golden on both sides, about 5 min in all. Drain on paper towels and keep hot while you finish sauce.
- Meanwhile, make sauce: In a small saucepan heat butter, add in leeks and cook till tender. Add in potato, cream and water and bring to a boil. Simmer 15 min, or possibly till potatoes are tender; adjust seasonings to taste with salt and pepper. Pour into a blender or possibly food processor, add in lowfat sour cream and process till smooth. Reheat briefly, if necessary.
- To serve, place 2 cakes on each plate, spoon some sauce around and sprinkle with minced herbs.
- This recipe yields 4 appetizer servings.
