Canned Salmon Recipes

Thanks for checking out our canned salmon recipes. This salmon patties recipe has a few unique ingredients that other recipes do not use. Unlike some salmon patties, which can be dry, the mayonnaise used in the recipe keeps it moist and the cornmeal is a great alternative to bread crumbs. It also uses onion instead of green onion, which is a nice change for people who do not want green onion in their patties.

Canned salmon is a great alternative to fresh or precooked because it is easy to keep on hand whenever you want to whip up a batch of patties for a tasty and complete meal. Unlike other patty recipes, you do not bread them after you shape the patties nor do you chill them, unless you are making them to cook later.

• • 1 can salmon weighing 14 ¾ ounces
• • 3 Tbsp mayonnaise (use light for fewer calories and fat)
• • ¼ cup yellow onion, chopped finely
• • ¼ cup all purpose flour
• • ¼ cup cornmeal
• • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• • Vegetable oil

Mix beaten egg, onion, cornmeal, flour and mayonnaise and add to salmon. Mix together until it is all evenly combined and smooth in texture.

Shape patties. Take between ¼ and 1/3 cup of the patty mixture and shape into a ball. Press it until it has flattened into a patty shape. Place on cookie sheet until it is time to cook patties.

Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. In small batches, place patties into skillet and cook until it is browned on each side. Turn once during cooking but do not allow patties to become dark in color.

These patties can be made ahead and reheated. They tend to be quite moist due to the mayonnaise.
