Ingredients

1 can (14.75 oz) salmon, drained and flaked (or 1 lb cooked fresh salmon, flaked)

1/2 cup breadcrumbs

1/4 cup finely chopped onion

1/4 cup chopped green onions or parsley

1 large egg

2 tablespoons mayonnaise

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil (for frying)

Instructions

Prepare the Salmon Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flaked salmon, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, green onions or parsley, egg, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly incorporated.

Form the Patties: Shape the mixture into small patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter. If the mixture is too dry, you can add a little more mayonnaise; if it’s too wet, add a bit more breadcrumbs.

Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil or vegetable oil over medium heat. Make sure the oil is hot before adding the patties for a nice, crispy finish.

Cook the Patties: Place the salmon patties in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Use a spatula to carefully flip each patty.

Drain and Serve: Remove the patties from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tartar sauce, lemon aioli, or a dollop of sour cream.
