Ingredients
  

  • 2 cans (6 oz each) salmon drained and flaked
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • ¼ cup chopped onion
  • ¼ cup chopped bell pepper optional
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil for frying

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Skillet or frying pan
  • Spatula
  • Paper towels

Method
 

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flaked salmon, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, bell pepper (if using), egg, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper; mix until evenly distributed.
  2. Scoop up a portion of the mixture and gently press it into a round, flat patty, aiming for about 6-8 patties total.

  4. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat; place the patties in the pan, leaving space between each one.

  6. Transfer the patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil; serve warm with lemon wedges on the side.

Notes

For extra crispiness, swap regular breadcrumbs for panko or gluten-free breadcrumbs. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze uncooked patties for up to 3 months. A sprinkle of smoked paprika adds a unique twist to the flavor. Serve them on a bed of greens or with a dollop of sour cream for a delightful presentation.
