Peel and chop the potatoes into uniform chunks. Boil in a large pot of salted water for 15 minutes or until soft.
While the potatoes are boiling, prepare the salmon fillets. Remove any skin if necessary. Place the salmon in a shallow pan, cover with water, and bring to a simmer. Cook for 10 minutes, or until cooked through and flaky. Remove from water and set aside to cool.
Once the potatoes are soft, drain them and return to the pot to steam off excess moisture. Mash thoroughly until smooth and set aside to cool slightly.
Finely chop the green onions and parsley.
In a large bowl, combine mashed potatoes, flaked salmon, chopped green onions, parsley, and gluten-free breadcrumbs. Add egg, salt, and black pepper. Zest the lemon over the mixture and stir to combine.
Form the mixture into 8 even-sized fishcakes using your hands. If the mixture is too sticky, add a touch more breadcrumbs.
Pour the olive oil into a large frying pan and heat over medium heat. Once hot, add the fishcakes, cooking for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and crisp.
Serve hot with lemon wedges and a side of your choice, such as salad or vegetables.
