🐟 Salmon Patties
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the Salmon Mixture
In a large bowl, combine:
flaked salmon
breadcrumbs
eggs
chopped onion
mayonnaise
mustard (if using)
garlic powder
black pepper
parsley
Mix until everything is evenly incorporated. The mixture should be sticky enough to hold together. Add more breadcrumbs if too wet.
2. Form Patties
Shape the mixture into 6–8 equal-sized patties, about 3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick.
3. Heat the Pan
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
4. Fry the Patties
Carefully place the patties in the hot oil.
Cook 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
5. Drain and Serve
Remove patties from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
Serve warm with:
tartar sauce
lemon wedges
or a fresh side salad
💡 Tips for Perfect Salmon Patties
Canned salmon tip: If using salmon with skin or bones, remove them for smoother patties.
Healthier option: Bake patties at 400°F (200°C) for 15–20 minutes, flipping halfway.
Add flavor: Mix in a little Old Bay seasoning or smoked paprika for a twist.
Make ahead: Patties can be formed and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before cooking.
