Step-by-step
- Mix all ingredients together, making the salmon mix into cakes.
- Fry in small amt. of 100% pure virgin olive oil, or a good corn oil, till golden on one side, then flip over & brown on second side.
- Drain on paper towels.
- I usually make a tossed salad with this dish, plus baked potatoes.
- If mixture, when ready to form into "cakes" does not seem moist enough, add 1tablespoon milk.
- If Mix is too moist, add sprinkle of instant potatoes till consistency is corrected.
- (p.s. Sometimes I add instant potatoes instead of bread crumbs, they turn out just as good)
Unlike delicate crab cakes that demand gentle handling, sturdy canned salmon patties tolerate thorough mixing without toughening the protein. Pressing the canned fish clean of all residual liquid prevents grease splattering during frying.
Pan Heat And Oil Selection
Maintain medium heat when frying these patties in extra virgin olive oil or corn oil. High heat scorches the outer breadcrumbs before the interior reaches serving temperature. Flip the cakes only when a deep golden crust forms across the bottom edge, roughly four minutes into frying. Drain excess oil on absorbent paper towels immediately upon removal from the skillet.Binder Adjustments
Bread crumbs absorb moisture differently than instant potato flakes. Adjust the mixture by incorporating milk one tablespoon at a time if the patties crack during shaping. Alternatively, dust extra instant potato flakes over wet mixtures until the dough holds a firm disk shape without sticking to palms.Storage And Second-Day Use
Refrigerate leftover cooked patties in an airtight container for up to three days. Reheat chilled croquettes on a wire rack inside a 350-degree oven for ten minutes to restore the exterior crispness.
