Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams canned salmon (drained)
- 250 grams potatoes (peeled and boiled)
- 100 grams breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 tablespoons fresh dill (chopped, optional)
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 clove garlic clove (minced)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (for frying)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Peel and dice the potatoes into small chunks. Boil them in salted water until tender, about 10-15 minutes. Drain and mash the potatoes until smooth, then set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes and flaked salmon. Ensure the salmon is fully drained and free of skin and large bones.
Add the egg, breadcrumbs, parsley, dill, lemon zest, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to the bowl. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are evenly combined.
Using clean hands, shape the mixture into 8 evenly sized patties. Place the patties on a plate and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to firm up.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the patties into the pan (work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding).
Cook each patty for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
Remove the cooked patties from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve warm with a wedge of lemon, tartar sauce, or your favorite side salad.
