Ingredients

• 400 grams cooked salmon (flaked)
• 100 grams breadcrumbs
• 1 large egg
• 120 grams mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (finely chopped)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 tablespoons olive oil (for frying)
• 120 grams mayonnaise (for seasoned mayo)
• 1 teaspoon hot sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder (for seasoned mayo)
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice (for seasoned mayo)

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the flaked salmon, breadcrumbs, egg, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon zest, lemon juice, chopped parsley, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 2

Mix the ingredients thoroughly until they come together into a cohesive mixture. If the mixture feels too wet, add a small amount of breadcrumbs. If too dry, add a small amount of mayonnaise.

Step 3

Using your hands, shape the mixture into 8 equal-sized patties (approximately 2 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick).

Step 4

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, gently place the salmon patties in the pan.

Step 5

Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Be careful when flipping them to avoid breaking the patties.

Step 6

While the patties cook, prepare the seasoned mayo. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, hot sauce, paprika, garlic powder, and lemon juice until smooth and evenly combined.

Step 7

Once the salmon patties are cooked, transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 8

Serve the salmon patties warm with the seasoned mayo on the side for dipping. Garnish with additional parsley or lemon wedges, if desired.
