In a large mixing bowl, mash the cooked and boiled potatoes until smooth.
Add the flaked salmon, chopped green onion, chopped parsley, minced garlic, egg, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the mashed potatoes. Mix well to combine.
Gradually add half of the breadcrumbs to the mixture and stir until the mixture holds together well. If too sticky, add a little more breadcrumbs.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 1 inch thick.
Spread the remaining breadcrumbs on a plate. Coat each patty lightly in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure even coverage.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Working in batches if necessary, fry the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and heated through.
Transfer cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve warm with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
