Speedy Salmon Patties
I combine seven easy ingredients for this salmon patty recipe. When I was a girl growing up on the farm, my mom often fixed these when we were late in the field. These salmon cakes are also tasty with chopped green peppers added to the mixture. —Bonnie Evans, Cameron, North Carolina

They browned well, but the patties were too thick. Inside of each patty was raw after browning on each side. So, I cut them in half longways to brown them again. I have 12 thin, cooked patties. Like the other reviews, I suggest adding some flavor. The fishiness can be a little overpowering. I tripled the Worcestershire sauceand added a pinch of garlic powder. Even still, I think it needs more flavor.
Great recipe! I added a bit of garlic salt rather than table salt and a bit of parsley for flavor. Loved it!
Very yummy! I might add some extra seasoning next time.
this was a quick, easy recipe, we loved it debpenningtonVFE
I made this as written and found it to be a bit salty, but that may have been the brand of canned salmon I used. Adding bell peppers sounds amazing.
I made these for lunch. I left out the Worcestershire sauce. Thank you, Bonnie, for sharing this recipe.
I just made these salmon cakes and they came out delicious. I did make one swap for the saltines with about 7 tablespoons of homemade breadcrumbs from stale french bread.
I just made these for my husband. I'm not a fan of fish but he loved them! I followed the recipe as written but used a few shakes of dried onion instead of the 1/3 cup onion. They are delicate to put in the pan but once one side is browned and gently flipped, they hold together just fine. It made 5 patties and he ate 3 for supper and would've eaten all 5 but I told him he'd have no lunch tomorrow if he didn't stop! Will definitely make again....for him! :)
This recipe is delicious. I made only a few changes. Like another reviewer I doubled the Worcestershire sauce and the crackers. I used olive oil to fry the patties. Also, I used red salmon from Alaska. They were delicious. I highly recommend this recipe.Volunteer Field Editor
These are very good! I tripled the Worcestershire sauce and added a bit more crackers. It made it perfect. Do not discard bones and skin, leave them in. I used olive oil to fry. Next time I will use bacon grease too! Make sure to put together in a ball in your hand and softy pat out in skillet. Make sure they have a nice brown crust before gently turning and browning other side. They will stay together that way. I give them a full 5 stars! Another recipe I make has 1/2 cup of flour in the recipe (which holds it together) but I like this recipe without the flour. The flavor is better. It's challenging without using flour but possible to do. 2/4/17 I used green onions and the Worcestershire sauce to taste (did not measure). Measured everything else precisely. I like the green onions even better!!!!
