Salmon Fried Patties Cajun Recipes

SALMON PATTIES I

Steps:

• Drain and reserve liquid from salmon. Mix egg, onion, bread crumbs and salmon together.
• Make into patties. If mixture is too dry to form into patties, add reserved liquid from salmon.
• In a frying pan, heat olive oil. Place patties in pan. Brown on each side, turning gently. Drain on paper towels and serve.

CAJUN BLACKENED SALMON PATTIES

Steps:

• Drain canned salmon and remove bones, then transfer to a medium-sized mixing bowl. Using a fork, break up the salmon into small chunks.
• Add the remaining ingredients and lightly mix until combined (be careful not to over mix to maintain the texture of the burgers). Use a 1/4 measuring cup to form equally sized patties, you should get about 6 patties.
• Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Sear each patty for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until blackened (but not burnt!). Set burgers on a plate lined with paper towel to drain off excess oil. Serve immediately.

FRIED SALMON PATTIES

Steps:

• Add salmon to a medium bowl (do not drain).
• Remove bones; add the flour, eggs, onion and salt and pepper.
• Beat with an electric mixer until well incorporated.
• In a large skillet, heat enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan.
• With a medium spoon, add salmon spreading them into round patties (you can make large or small).
• Let them cook on one side 10 minutes, then flip cook 10 minutes more.
• ENJOY!

SOUTHERN FRIED SALMON PATTIES

Steps:

• 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.
• Note: The mayonnaise helps the patties hold their shape and keeps them from being too dry.

FRIED SALMON PATTIES

Steps:

• Dump the ingredients of the two cans of salmon onto a large plate then pick out all the bones (it is nasty, but necessary).
• In a large bowl add all ingredients except the oil and mix very well. Make sure it is fairly smooth (you want it less chunky than chicken salad, almost a paste).
• Using a large spoon or just your hands roll large lumps into firm balls. As for the size of the balls, that is completely up to you. I make mine a little larger than a golf ball.
• Flatten the balls till they are about the thickness of a pancake.
• Pour oil into a skillet over medium heat. Add the patties, making sure they are not touching in the skillet. DO NOT turn them too often, they will crumble. I cook them about 5 minutes then carefully flip them over and cook another 5 to 7 minute on the other side.
• My family likes to eat them plain with ketchup or hot sauce. Sometimes I serve them on sesame seed buns with a slice of tomato and a leaf of lettice.

PAN-FRIED CAJUN SALMON

Steps:

• Brush the salmon fillets with lemon juice and pan fry for 4-5 minutes, skin side up. Turn, brush again with lemon juice, and sprinkle with the Cajun Seasoning.
• Fry for a further 4-5 minutes, until the salmon is cooked through.
• Meanwhile, mix the pepper, onion, cucumber and tomatoes in a bowl. Stir in the olive oil, vinegar and cilantro and season to taste.
• Serve the salmon and the salsa with your choice of green vegetables.
