Salmon Patties
These salmon patties are quick and easy to make, and they taste great! They use simple ingredients.
I like to use sockeye salmon (I find it more flavorful) but this recipe also works well with the more economical pink salmon - or you could compromise and use one can of each. Canned salmon includes bones, but they are soft enough to eat. Just mash them well with a fork. The bones are a good source of calcium.
I like to make my own bread crumbs (I use my
Magic Bullet.)
You can use prepared bread crumbs, but homemade are so much tastier.
We like to eat these with
Tzatziki.
2 cans (each 6 oz/184 g) salmon, drained
2 eggs
1/2 cup/125 mL whole wheat bread crumbs
1/2 cup/125 mL corn
1/4 cup/60 mL chopped red onion
2 Tbsp/30 mL cornmeal
1/4 tsp/1 mL salt
1/4 tsp/1 mL pepper
1/2 cup/125 mL more bread crumbs
2 tsp/10 mL cooking oil
With a fork, flake the salmon into a bowl. Use the fork to mash any visible bones.
Add the eggs, first amount of bread crumbs, corn, onion, cornmeal, salt and pepper.
Mix well.
Using your hands, form patties, using about 1/3 cup/80 mL per patty.
Put the second amount of bread crumbs into a shallow bowl.
Preheat a large skillet. Add the oil to the skillet.
Dip each patty into the crumbs, turning it to coat both sides, and place it into the skillet. Cook a few minutes on each side, until browned.
