Salmon Patties

Commonly known as croquettes, salmon is combined with fresh parsley and seasonings, crushed saltine crackers and egg, shaped into patties and pan fried for an old southern favorite. Traditionally, I serve these with mashed potatoes and creamed peas.

Ingredients

• 25 oz cans canned salmon, drained & deboned
• The juice of 2 limes
• 1 & 1/2 sleeves original saltines crushed
• 15 oz can black beans, drained & rinsed
• 15 oz can corn, drained
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 4 eggs
• 1 medium to large onion minced
• 1 cup chopped cilantro
• 3-4 diced jalapenos seeds in or out depending on how you like it
• 4 tablespoons taco seasoning
• 2 tablespoons garlic powder
• Salt & pepperto taste
• Vegetable oil to fry

Directions

1. In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients except for the vegetable oil together. Using firm hands, make patties out of the salmon mixture. Add a little more crushed cracker if you need more binder.
2. Fry in hot oil until browned on each side. Serve hot.
3. Try it with my homemade cilantro cream sauce!

Enjoy !!
