Ingredients
  

  • 1 can 14.75 ounces pink salmon, drained and crumbled
  • 1/2 cup plain or seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup creamy mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for frying

Method
 

  1. Place the crumbled salmon in a mixing bowl.
  2. Add the breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, green onions, beaten egg, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt.
  3. Stir the mixture thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
  4. Shape the mixture into small cakes, approximately 2 to 3 inches wide, yielding about 8 cakes.
  5. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  6. Once the oil is shimmering, gently place the salmon cakes in the skillet, ensuring there is enough space between them to cook evenly.
  7. Fry each cake for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they achieve a beautiful golden brown color and a crispy exterior.
  8. Once cooked, transfer the cakes to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
  9. Serve these delicious salmon cakes warm, either with a zesty dipping sauce or nestled in a bun for a delightful salmon burger experience.
