Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Cooked salmon (flaked)
- 1 cup Canned corn (drained)
- 0.75 cup Breadcrumbs (preferably panko)
- 3 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1 Egg
- 2 stalks Green onions (finely chopped)
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Paprika
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flaked salmon, canned corn, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, and egg. Use a fork to gently mix everything together.
Add the chopped green onions, parsley, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Form the mixture into 8 evenly sized patties, pressing them together firmly to ensure they hold their shape.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the salmon cakes into the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook the salmon cakes for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Transfer the cooked salmon cakes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve warm, optionally garnished with lemon wedges or a dollop of tartar sauce on the side.
