Quick and easy, added some diced Green and Red Bell Pepper and a dash of diced Garlic. Masarap, Awanan
I made these and they were wonderful, so easy and it looks like you have slaved over them. Served them with peas and bearnaise sauce. My husband couldn’t stop raving.
I cut recipe in half (for two) but kept the whole egg. Added T of chopped capers. Excellent and so easy. Thanks for sharing.
Very good recipe. I even tried the garlic mayo that was suggested delicious
DRAIN THE SALMON!!
I, too, added bread crumbs and minced garlic, along with a bit of Italian seasoning. The patties fried up nicely and served well with a side of creamy garlic pasta. Excellent recipe and very hackable, if desired! Thank you for sharing.
loved it, i followed the recipe to a T and it turned out great! would for sure make this again!
Very good! I made mine gluten free and nightshade free. I added: 1/2 tsp. dill weed, 1/2 tsp. white pepper, 1/2 tsp. garlic powder, 1/2 tsp. black pepper, 1/4 tsp. sea salt, shape into 4 patties and spray lightly with coconut oil, 400 degree toaster oven, bake for 15 minutes turning once half way through, then broil on each side for 2 minutes each.
Very simple recipe for a good quick dinner with amazing flavor. Will be making these again and again. Thank you for putting your recipe on here for us to use!??
These were okay but nothing spectacular; too much moisture so either more breadcrumbs should have been used or the salmon drained. I also found those to be somewhat bland, they needed seasoning/flavour.
I added a little fresh squeezed lemon juice. Tasted great.
Easy, but very bland. I used fresh salmon instead of canned. Lowered the heat to medium-low.
a good basic recipe. I generally add other ingredients (like most of y’all). I add fresh shredded or powdered parmesan cheese, Italian bread crumbs ( or plan bread crumbs & Cajun seasoning OR crushed crackers). I chop my onions small & add fresh minced garlic. when out of onions & garlic I’ll use powders or dehydrated which ever I have). I like the dill comment, I’ll try that next time. 🙂
Yummy !! I took a pic which isn’t so beautiful since it was my first time but they tasted amazing !! My family loved them !
Great simple recipe with items you have on hand. Used canned salmon. In addition to the original ingredients, I didn’t drain the salmon, added freshly chopped garlic, parsley, breadcrumbs from home made bread I had on hand, and used arrowroot powder as the binder instead of an egg. Chilled the mixture for about an hour or two. Fried them in a cast iron skillet lightly oiled with olive oil, since I like the taste of olive oil. Served with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on top.
Great recipe.
Good! It works! I just chopped the onion fine instead of grating. Just salt and pepper and a healthy squirt of lemon.
Very good with one important modification, use seasoned bread crumbs instead of the plain bread and flour.
This was a great and tasty meal. Mostly I believe it was because I added extra spices of my own. I added dashes of lemon pepper, Season All and garlic salt. Along with 1/4 tsp of paprika and just a little bit more than that of Old Bay Seasoning. I really didn’t need as much oil for one can of Salmon. Next time, ill probably just use half of a cup only.It was scrumptious!
It was ok as written, but when I added a little mozzarella cheese (Parmesan would have been even better, I think), lemon juice, breadcrumbs, 1 finely diced carrot, and 1 finely dice piece of celery, it was the best I’ve ever had. Served with mac and cheese and peas, it makes a great comfort meal.
This is exactly like the salmon cakes my mother used to make. I added more spice, like smoked paprika and even chile powder, and fried it in a small amount of coconut oil. Nostalgic and special since my 83 year old mother is eating lunch with me often.
