I always find myself going back to the days when I was  a child, thinking about all of the home-cooked meals my mom would make.  While all of the meals my mother cooked were amazing, there are a few that were my absolute favorites and I find myself fixing modified versions of her recipes frequently.  Salmon Patties is one of them!

You’ll Need:

1 (6 oz) drained can of skinless and boneless pink salmon.
2 tbsps of diced onion.
A good pinch of salt and pepper.
1 large egg.
1 tbsp of buttermilk.
2 tbsps of cornmeal.
4 tbsps of all purpose flour.
Vegetable oil for frying.

How to:

Mix together the salmon, onion, salt and pepper in a bowl and mix in the egg, buttermilk, cornmeal and flour until well combined.
In a medium iron skillet, heat ¼ of vegetable oil over medium high heat and drop spoonfuls of the salmon mixture and flatten out just a tad.
Fry for about a minute per side until golden brown and place on a paper sack or paper towel to drain.
Bonne Appétit!
Simple, easy and yummy! You won’t believe how good this salmon tastes. I serve it with a nice cold vegetable salad and some rice. Give it a shot, you won’t regret it.
