Salmon Patties



I love salmon in any form. But my favorite, Southern version is the ever popular Salmon Patty. There are dozens of variations of ingredients for fillers such as cracker crumbs, bread crumbs, or crumbled bread. My version is simplistic and delicious. I promise!

1 can of salmon, drained and small bones removed
1/4 t. Old Bay Seasoning
1/4 t. freshly ground black pepper
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 T. self-rising flour

With a fork, lightly combine all ingredients.

In a large skillet, heat 2 T. of corn, vegetable or coconut oil over medium high heat. Spoon salmon mixture into skillet making four equal mounds. Flatten with the back of a spoon. Lower heat to medium low and let cook 4 - 5 minutes per side until crunchy and golden brown.

Remove from skillet and drain on a paper towel lined plate.

  1. What size of canned salmon is needed for the Southern Salmon Patties recipe printed in today's Austin American-Statesman, and the similar recipe on the blog? Salmon comes in small cans as well as the larger, 14-oz family size which is used in the Mediterranean Salmon Patties recipe, and in pouches as well. The one difference in the Southern recipes is salt vs. Old Bay seasoning.
