Southern Fried Salmon Patties
- Ingredients
- 1 14 3/4 ounce canned salmon
- 1/4 cup onion (finely chopped)
- 1/4 cup cornmeal
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon seasoning salt (I like Old Bay Here)
- 1 teaspoon lemon pepper
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- Directions
- Open salmon and drain thoroughly. Place drained salmon in mixing bowl and flake evenly with a fork.
- Add onion, corn meal, flour, mayonnaise, and egg. Stir until well blended.
- Shape the mixture into patties about the size of an average burger or less.
- Cook in oil in skillet over medium heat until browned on each side. Turn once while frying.
- Season with salt and pepper immediately after frying
. Note: The mayonnaise helps the patties hold their shape and keeps them from being too dry.
