Easy Old Fashioned Salmon Patties
Description
Easy Old Fashioned Salmon Patties start with canned salmon, drained and gently broken apart. Grated red onion and finely chopped green onion add freshness and bite, while dried dill, garlic powder, and Old Bay seasoning contribute herbal and savory depth. The mixture is bound with eggs and mayonnaise, seasoned to taste, then combined with crushed Ritz crackers, which provide structure and moisture absorption.
Fried in a non-stick pan at medium-low heat, the patties crisp on the outside and remain tender inside. The balance of seasonings and the mild sweetness of the crackers give the patties a comforting home-cooked flavor. These patties can be served warm as a main dish or alongside salad or bread, suitable for casual dining.
Tasting the mixture before adding salt is recommended since canned salmon, crackers, and mayo often contain sufficient saltiness. Adjust seasoning as needed for balanced flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 cup canned salmon 1 tin
- ⅔ cup Ritz crackers About 20 crackers or 1 cup before crushing, crushed
- 1 tablespoon red onion grated
- 2 tablespoon green onion finely chopped

- ¾ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- 2 egg
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tsp vegetable oil

Instructions
- Drain canned salmon, add to a medium sized bowl and gently break up with a fork.
- Add grated onion, chopped green onion, dill, garlic and Old Bay spice. Stir through gently.
- Add egg, mayo and lemon juice. Stir to combine well and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Add cracker crumbs and stir gently to combine.
- Heat a non-stick pan on medium-low heat. Add a teaspoon of oil if desired and then add salmon patty mixture in 2-4 tablespoon sized dollops. Press down gently to flatten until ½" thick. Fry until golden on one side. Flip and fry until other side is golden. Remove from pan and serve while warm.
