When I was a child, my mom used to prepare salmon patties for dinner. It was one of our family’s favorite dishes. Over the years, I have tweaked the recipe to make it my own and have shared it with my neighbors and friends. Recently, my neighbor asked me to make it for her son’s birthday party, and it was a hit! Everyone loved it, and I received many compliments. It’s a simple and delicious recipe that I’m excited to share with all of you today.
How to Prepare The Best Canned Salmon Patties
Ingredients for The Best Canned Salmon Patties
- 1 can (14.75 oz) salmon, drained
- 1/3 cup bread crumbs
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1/4 cup chopped celery
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 egg, beaten
- 4 tablespoons butter, for frying
Directions for The Best Canned Salmon Patties
1. First, drain the salmon and remove the bones and skin. Then, in a large bowl, combine the salmon, bread crumbs, green onions, celery, mayonnaise, and beaten egg. Mix everything well.
2. Next, shape the mixture into four even-sized patties. You can serve two for dinner and save two for the next day to make a salmon burger with condiments of your choice.
3. In a large saute pan, melt the butter on low heat. Add the salmon patties and saute on medium heat until they are golden brown on each side and cooked through.
4. I like to serve the patties with boiled and cut up cooked potatoes, a hard boiled egg, cream gravy, and my candied crunchy dill pickles on the side. Sprinkle a little dill seed and a splash of lemon juice on the patties for extra flavor.
