πŸ“ Instructions

7 steps
1

Place the fresh salmon fillet into a pot of simmering water and poach for 5-7 minutes or until fully cooked. Remove and let cool. Once cooled, flake the salmon into small pieces using a fork.

2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flaked salmon, panko breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, egg, green onion, garlic, parsley, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until evenly combined.

3

Form the mixture into 8 equal-sized patties, about 1 inch thick. Place the patties onto a plate and chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to help them hold their shape while cooking.

4

Heat vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, carefully add the salmon cakes in batches to prevent overcrowding.

5

Cook the salmon cakes for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp on the outside. Adjust the heat as needed to avoid burning.

6

Transfer the cooked salmon cakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

7

Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, lemon wedges, or a side salad. Enjoy!
