SALMON PATTIES {taste of home}

By grinder

This easy tasty recipe is great with leftover salmon and is also great with crab. Leftover salmon is usually dryer than canned, so start with 2 tablespoons flour and add the 3rd if needed.

Ingredients

• 1 {14.75oz} can salmon
• 1 egg
• 1 small onion, diced {.25 c.}
• 1/4 cup bell pepper, diced
• 1/2 teaspoon Tabasco
• 2 tablespoons dried parsley
• 2-3 tablespoons flour
• 2 tablespoons butter

Preparation

Step 1

In a roomy bowl, combine salmon, egg, onion, bell pepper, Tabasco and parsley. Carefully remove skin and bones from salmon. Mix well. Add enough flour to the mixture to hold the patties together.

In a large frying pan, melt butter over med-high heat. Using a ¼ cup measuring scoop, scoop mixture and add to the pan, flattening into patties with a spatula. Cook 3-5 minutes per side, until nicely brown.
