Salmon Patties

Ingredients:

• 2 cans (14.75 oz each) canned salmon, drained and flaked
• 2 large eggs
• ½ cup breadcrumbs
• ¼ cup finely chopped onion
• ¼ cup finely chopped bell pepper
• 2 tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
• 2–3 tbsp vegetable oil, for frying

Method:

1. In a large bowl, combine the flaked salmon, eggs, breadcrumbs, onion, bell pepper, mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and parsley. Mix until well combined.
2. Shape the mixture into 6–8 equal-sized patties, pressing them firmly so they hold together.
3. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Carefully place the patties in the hot oil and cook for 4–5 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
4. Transfer the salmon patties to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve warm with lemon wedges, tartar sauce, or your favorite side dish.
