Ingredients
- 2 large russet potatoes
- 15 ounces canned salmon
- 1 piece large egg
- 2 stalks green onion
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Peel and dice the russet potatoes into 1-inch cubes.
Step 2
Place the potatoes into a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 10-12 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Drain and mash them until smooth. Let the mashed potatoes cool to room temperature.
Step 3
Drain the canned salmon and remove any large bones. Flake the salmon into small pieces in a large mixing bowl.
Step 4
Finely chop the green onion and parsley, then add them to the bowl with the salmon.
Step 5
Add the cooled mashed potatoes, minced garlic, lemon zest, salt, black pepper, and the egg to the bowl. Mix everything thoroughly until evenly combined.
Step 6
Gradually mix in the panko breadcrumbs until the mixture is firm enough to shape into patties. You may not need the full amount.
Step 7
Shape the mixture into 8 equal-sized patties, about 3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick.
Step 8
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 9
Once the oil is hot, fry the patties in batches for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 10
Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Step 11
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or a fresh side salad.
