To prevent excess fat from remaining on it, after cooking, place it on a paper towel and blot it on top with it.

Gradually, spoon it into the flour mixture. You should have a firm and elastic dough. Such cakes are baked in the same way as potato pancakes.

Spread it on one side of the cooled cake. Cut the salted and smoked salmon into small cubes, sprinkle the cheese filling with the fish.

Spread a thin layer of tartar sauce - mayonnaise with the addition of chopped gherkins and capers. Sprinkle the cake with salmon, and then proceed according to the first filling recipe.
