Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz cooked salmon, flaked
- 1 cup mashed potatoes
- 2 tablespoons green onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 large egg
- 1.5 cups breadcrumb (nut-free)
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine flaked cooked salmon and mashed potatoes.
Add green onions, parsley, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix until well combined.
Crack the egg into a separate small bowl and beat it lightly. Add the beaten egg to the salmon mixture and mix thoroughly.
Place the breadcrumbs on a large plate.
Shape the salmon mixture into small patties, about 3 inches in diameter.
Coat each salmon patty in the breadcrumbs, ensuring they are evenly covered.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Fry the croquettes in batches for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown and heated through.
Transfer the cooked croquettes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve the croquettes hot, garnished with additional parsley and accompanied by your choice of sauce, if desired.
