Salmon Patties

This recipe for salmon patties uses canned red salmon for a tasty finish. You could substitute pink salmon but the red variety does have a richer flavor. The onion powder, salt and black pepper bring out the delicious salmon flavor and the egg binds the patties together.

The salmon patties only take a couple of minutes to fry to perfection. You can either serve them with the dill sauce described in the recipe or with some tartar sauce or homemade garlic mayonnaise. This salmon patties recipe is nice served with boiled or mashed potatoes and with garden peas or broccoli on the side.

Ingredients -

2 lbs canned red salmon
1 cup all purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup vegetable oil
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon baking powder
2 eggs
1 teaspoon onion powder

Preparation:

Drain and flake the salmon with a fork.

Beat the eggs lightly.

Mix the salmon with the flour, salt, pepper, baking powder, eggs and onion powder.

When the ingredients are well combined, shape 12 patties of equal size.

Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet until it is very hot but not quite smoking.

Cook the salmon patties for a couple of minutes per side or until they are golden and hot through.

You will need to cook them in batches. Drain them on paper towels and serve hot.

If you want to serve a sauce with this salmon patties recipe, you could combine half a cup of mayonnaise with a cup of sour cream, a teaspoon of dried dill, a couple of teaspoons of lemon juice and a tablespoon of sweet pickle relish.

Chill this sauce for an hour and serve it alongside the hot salmon patties.
