Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the canned salmon, eggs, breadcrumbs, potato flakes, red onion, lemon juice, hot sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
- Form the salmon mixture into patties using about ¼ cup for each. Shape into balls, then gently press to form patties about ½ inch thick. Place the formed patties on a plate or baking sheet.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Place the patties in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan (cook about half at a time). Cook for 5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Add more oil to the skillet as needed and cook the remaining patties.
- Transfer the cooked patties to a paper towel-lined plate. Serve immediately while hot and crispy, with lemon wedges and tartar sauce on the side.
Notes
- Breadcrumb alternatives: Use panko, crushed crackers, or almond flour for a different texture or dietary preference.
- Patties can be baked or air-fried for a healthier option without sacrificing crispness.
- For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free breadcrumbs or crushed rice cakes for a gluten-free version.
- These patties taste great hot, warm, or even at room temperature for versatile serving options.
