In a big bowl, mash together the potatoes and salmon (get rid of any bones or skin first). Add the lemon juice, zest, flour, chopped herbs, beaten egg, and a touch of seasoning. Stir it all gently so it combines well.

Scoop up equal portions using an ice cream scooper. Dust a plate or board with flour, roll each portion into a ball, then lightly press to make a patty shape.

Warm olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry each cake until the outsides are crispy and have that nice golden color.

Throw the Greek yogurt, crushed garlic, lemon juice, and chives into a small bowl. Add your salt and pepper and mix it all up. Let it chill for 15 minutes so the flavors come together nicely.
