CELL PHONE SALMON PATTIES!

I grabbed this shot with my cell phone. Once again, not the best possible presentation. But these patties are soooooo amazing. That is if you like canned Salmon, and even if you think you don't

I've been known to turn my nose up to canned salmon in the past, as I'm not much a fan of canned anything....

But this recipe has made me a believer, and while we didn't have them between two pieces of starch, making them a bona fide sandwich, that's not to say they won't make an awesome sandwich next time. By then I hope to have a working camera so as to capture the real essense of these healthy, scrumptious, easy to make beauties.
Think about it, they'll be great in a salad, by themselves, cold or hot. These babies are WINNING!!!!!!!!!!

Ingredients:
1 can salmon, skin & bones removed
½ cup diced onion
¼ cup diced bell pepper
1 egg
¼ cup cracker crumbs
fresh ground pepper
oil for browning (preferably Canola oil)

Method:
Flake cleaned salmon into a mixing bowl. Add all other ingredients and mix together. Form patties and refrigerate for about 20 minutes. Lightly coat a frying pan with oil. Not enough to make the patties swim, but just enough to brown them, and do just that, brown over medium heat, turning once, until golden brown on both sides. Makes 4 lovely burger sized patties.

  1. I grew up on canned salmon (we said sa-man croquettes), but hubby is the snob :)
