Salmon Patties Recipe (VIDEO)

These salmon patties are flaky, tender and so flavorful. The crisp edges and big bites of flaked salmon are the hallmark of these salmon patties. They are the real deal! It’s no wonder these salmon cakes have been so popular (read the glowing reviews here).
This is an easy and excellent way to use leftover salmon and it is worth it to cook the salmon just for this (instructions below). For busy weeknights, you can substitute with well-drained canned salmon or the salmon in packets which you may already have in your pantry!
I hope you all love these salmon patties and the easy homemade tartar sauce that goes with them.

These salmon patties are such a treat and even folks who don’t normally like salmon enjoy this recipe. They always disappear fast!
P.S. Serve salmon cakes with this irresistible homemade tartar sauce. P.S. Once you try homemade and realize how easy it is, there’s just no going back to store-bought tartar sauce. It is so much better in every way!

Salmon Patties Recipe (VIDEO)
Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh salmon filet*
- 3 Tbsp Olive oil divided
- 1 1/2 tsp Garlic salt I used Lawry's Brand, to taste
- 1/2 tsp Black pepper or to taste
- 1 medium yellow onion 1 cup, finely diced
- 1/2 red bell pepper seeded and diced
- 3 Tbsp unsalted butter divided
- 1 cup Panko bread crumbs
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
- 3 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 cup parsley finely minced
Instructions
-
Preheat Oven to 425˚F. Line rimmed baking sheet with parchment or silicone liner. Place salmon in the center, skin-side-down, drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic salt and black pepper. Bake uncovered for 10-15 min (depending on thickness), or just until cooked through. Remove from oven, cover with foil and rest 10 min. Flake salmon with 2 forks discarding skin and any bones then set aside and cool to room temp.
-
Heat a medium skillet over medium heat with 1 Tbsp olive oil and 1 Tbsp butter. Add diced onion and bell pepper and saute until golden and softened (7-9 minutes) then remove from heat.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combined flaked salmon, sautéed pepper and onion, 1 cup bread crumbs, 2 beaten eggs, 3 Tbsp mayonnaise, 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp garlic salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper and 1/4 cup chopped parsley. Stir to combine. Form into patties (about a heaping Tablespoonful each) and mold with your hands into 2" wide by 1/3 to 1/2" thick patties.**
-
In a clean non-stick pan, heat 1 Tbsp oil and 1 Tbsp butter until hot then add salmon patties in a single layer. Saute 3 to 4 min per side or until golden brown and cooked through. If salmon patties brown too fast, reduce heat. Remove finished patties to a paper-towel lined plate and repeat with remaining oil, butter and salmon cakes.
Recipe Notes
*Substituting Salmon: If desired, you can substitute the first 4 ingredients listed with 15 oz of well-drained canned salmon or salmon in packets. Leftover salmon from dinner can also be used if available.
**Cook's Tip: If salmon mixture is too dry to hold a patty shape, add an extra tablespoon of mayo and if it is too moist, add more bread crumbs.

Hi! I'm Natasha Kravchuk. Here you'll find delicious, trusted recipes with easy step-by-step photos and videos. 
This is a good recipe and I will make it again. I think the large amount of onion and red bell pepper is what makes it so good. My only criticism is that the directions say it makes 14 patties. That’s only slightly more than one ounce. Maybe that’s ok for a cocktail party but for a main course, it is not. This recipe makes 6 regular sized salmon cakes.
Hi Robert, yes we made 14 patties using a tablespoon scoop. So they are smaller. If you try the bigger versions I would love to know how you like them better.
They were fine larger. One was sufficient for dinner; two if you’re really hungry.
If I make these into balls instead of patties as an appetizer to go further, do I still fry in pan or should I bake in oven?
Hi Lori, I think you could make that work. Forming into balls makes it a little more complicated to cook and turn the patties. Make sure you are using a good non-stick pan. If you experiment with either please let me know how you like that.
These look delicious! Could I freeze these?
Hi Donna, I imagine cooked patties would freeze well but I’m not sure if the patties would fall apart or not if they are frozen before cooking. If you experiment, let me know how it goes!
This knocked our socks off. We used wild sockeye (previously frozen, sigh, we live in Texas). We added one medium size diced jap. We could not taste the jap or detect any heat, but the flavors in this recipe are spectacular. Next cook were going to up the jalapeno to twice as much to see how that works.
This is a killer recipe. Wow. Thank you. Love it.
That’s just awesome!! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, Dale.
Hi, can these be frozen? If so, cooked or uncooked? Hubby Loved these so much that he wants to make sure we always have some on hand. Do we cook from frozen or thawed state?
Thanks and Merry Christmas
Hi Sandra, I imagine cooked patties would freeze well but I’m not sure if the patties would fall apart or not if they are frozen before cooking. If you experiment, let me know how it goes!
Can you use canned salmon? If so, what is the canned grams size for this recipe?
Hi El, I have that note at the bottom of the recipe card: “15 oz of well-drained canned salmon or salmon in packets.”
Thanks. Look forward to make this.
Was wondering if you can freeze them?
Hi El, I imagine cooked patties would freeze well but I’m not sure if the patties would fall apart or not if they are frozen before cooking. If you experiment, let me know how it goes!
Can’t wait to try this!
What is the dip?
Hi Karen, we used this Homemade Tartar sauce/dip here & linked it in the recipe.
Hi Natasha, just wondering , I’m making them tonight can I use Ritz crackers instead of bread crumbs. Can’t wait to make them.
Hi Cynthia, I have not tested that but here is what one of our readers wrote “I made your delicious salmon cakes Friday they came out awesome thank you for sharing your recipe. The only thing I did different I did not have breadcrumbs so I used Ritz crackers Mr. Husband love them” I hope that helps.
Absolutely awesome!
I made them a bit larger for salmon burgers.
Brioche bun, lettuce and tomato with chipotle mayonnaise. A new family favorite.
I’m so glad you found a favorite! Thank you for sharing that with me!
Salmon cakes delish, family thumbs up.
I’m so glad you enjoyed that, Pam!
Tonight was probably the third or fourth time I’ve made these, and it’s the first time we didn’t use canned salmon. While it took a little longer, they were delicious, as they were every other time. Thank you, Natasha, for sharing all you do with all of us. I found your website several years ago when I was searching for a Ukrainian recipe to surprise my wife (who is from Ukraine), and I’ve never left, lol!
You’re welcome, Scott! I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe.
I’ve made these several times! I can’t express how much i love this recipe! Thank you so much
You’re welcome, James! I’m so glad you’ve enjoyed this recipe.
Oh my gosh!!! Just made this for my finance and youngest daughter and it was a huge hit!!! First bite and…”this is SO a do-again!” Delis!!!
That’s so great! It sounds like you have a new favorite!
Just tried this with my Wife, normally we cannot work together in the kitchen at all. This time however it was a pleasure, so multi kudos just for that!
Adjusted the ingredients slightly for 8 salmon cakes and used natural Greek yoghurt instead of the mayo and it was really really GREAT.
I’m so happy to hear that! Thanks for the wonderful review and so fun that you enjoyed making these together.
hi has anyone tryed old bay spice with this recipe if so how much and what do you think
Hi Kenneth, I haven’t tested that but I think it could work. If you experiment, let me know how you liked the recipe
yes i will let you know about the old bay spice please one more question we do not like panko bread crumb can i use mash potatoe or crushed crackers if so how much
Hi Kenneth, I haven’t tested that but I think it could work. If you experiment, let me know how you liked the recipe
Hi Kenneth, when I was a girl, my mom used crushed saltines for the coating on her salmon patties. They work well.
Thank you for sharing that with us, Beth.
Hi Kenneth, I make salmon cakes with mashed potatoes all the time and they turn out great!
Thank you so much for sharing that with us, Wendy!
These look fantastic! Do you have a recipe for the homemade tartar sauce?
We sure do! The Tartar Sauce recipe can be found here.
I made these tonight and we loved them! So easy and the homemade tarter sauce went perfect with them. I will definitely be making these again.
That’s just awesome!! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, Ann!
Hi! I’m excited to try this. It looks yummy and super easy. Curious, is there a substitute for Mayo that you could suggest? Also, what other sauce could you use instead of Tartar Sauce? I’m not a fan of mayo. Thanks!
Hi Yasmin, I haven’t tested any substitutions, but here is what one of our readers posted, “I used greek yogurt instead of mayo, which worked very well”
If i use canned salmon will it taste like the tin from the can?
Hi Tracyann, I haven’t noticed that being the case.
What is the weight of the salmon filet you use? Thanks
Hi Phyllis, it is a 1 lb filet. I hope you love the salmon patties!
What is the sauce/dip?
Hi Ginny, it is homemade tartar sauce.
Loved this recipe! Had to substitute dried parsley and used orange bell pepper because I didn’t have red but it was easy and delicious!
I’m so glad you enjoyed that, Kay! Thank you for sharing that with me!
Just made these and they are delicious! I used canned salmon and jarred roasted red peppers but followed the rest of the recipe exactly. I also made a slightly different version of the tartar sauce and yummy is all I have to say! I’ll be making these again!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you , thank you! I just made these wonderful patties tonight! We loved it! I’ll definitely make them for ever!! Brava!
Elisabetta from Venice, Italy
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for sharing your great review!
These salmon patties are delicious. I’ve made them a couple times now and I’m never disappointed. Fresh salmon is the way to go! This last time I made the salmon the day before to help save some time during the week and it worked out perfectly. I also have to say the homemade tartar sauce that’s linked in this recipe is absolutely amazing! So simple to make. I let it sit an hour in the fridge before dinner. Everyone loved it! Definitely give it a try, you wont be disappointed!
That’s so great! Sounds like you found a favorite!
I made your delicious salmon cakes Friday they came out awesome thank you for sharing your recipe
The only thing I did different I did not have breadcrumbs so I used Ritz crackers
Mr. Husband love them
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you both enjoyed it, Linda!
I made these tonight and we loved them! So easy and the homemade tarter sauce went perfect with them. I will definitely be making these again.
That’s so great! It sounds like you have a new favorite!
I love, love, love this recipe! I fry them and then put them in the freezer just until firm. Then put them in 4’s in foodsaver bags and freeze them. I usually make a double batch so I always have some on hand. They’re great for RV’ing also.
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us!
Planning on making these tonight. Do you have any suggestions for good side dishes for these?
Hi Stacy, you can serve these with salad and rice of course. Mashed potatoes will work too. Don’t skip the homemade tartar sauce.
Can you use canned salmon?
Hi Colleen, yes! Several of our readers have reported great results used canned salmon. I recommend looking through the comments for tips and advice.
Can these be frozen before cooking and thawed and cooked later?
I imagine cooked patties would freeze well but I’m not sure if the patties would fall apart or not if they are frozen before cooking. If you experiment, let me know how it goes!
Delicious.. we made it for dinner.. thank you!!
Thank you for the wonderful review, Veronica!
This was easy and filling. Even made your Homemade tarter Sauce was refreshing
Thanks for all these amazing recipes.
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed it, Cynthia!
DELICIOUS! Perfect way to use fresh, wild, Alaskan, sockeye salmon scraps left over from making uniform-sized smoked salmon strips that we preserve in jars.
I made a double batch and wonder if it’s better to cook patties and freeze, or freeze patty-sized portions… Any experience or advice?
Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe!

You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed it Janette!
Hi Natasha, I made these salmon patties yesterday, however, I used a hamburger patty maker. The patties were about 4 inches in diameter and about 3/4 inches thick. I made four of them. They crumbled a bit on the edges in the frying pan, perhaps I need to use more mayo next time. The patties did take longer to cook, but they were filling. Do you think that adding more mayo would resolve the crumbliness or could I add an extra egg??
Hi James, Make sure to use the same proportions of ingredients in the recipe so it doesn’t get too dry. If it is too dry adding more mayo may help. Also, a good non-stick, well oiled pan helps and add them to a hot pan to keep them from sticking. If they aren’t sticking to the pan, they will be easier to flip and won’t fall apart as easilly.
I’m not a fish eater, but I love these! Can the extras be frozen?
Hi Barb, I imagine cooked patties would freeze well but I’m not sure if the patties would fall apart or not if they are frozen before cooking. If you experiment, let me know how it goes!
These are the best and so easy to make.
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us, Kathy!
I just made these for lunch today. Amazing! I used yellow and green pepper, instead of red. Will try red next time. II was reading some other comments about substituting the mayo with yogurt, and maybe adding fresh lemon. I used jalapeno lime aioli from Costco for dipping. Very good!
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us!
How do you make the cucumber dip?
Hi Linda, are you referring to this dip here?
Now a family favorite!
That’s just awesome!! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review Kim 🙂
Has become my entire families favorite!!! Even the non salmon lovers!! Thank you, I have passed this recipe on to so many people always raving about your video recipes!
That’s so great! I’m so happy you found a favorite salmon recipe on the blog! & thank you for sharing this recipe with your family & friends!
Hi Natasha, Hubby don’t like onions or peppers how much onions salt or powder can I substitute for the onion I know it sounds bland gotta try something.
Hi Teresa, I haven’t tested that so I can’t advise on amounts but I think it could work. If you experiment, let me know how you liked the recipe
Hi My Mom made salmon patties with the canned salmon as part of our weekly dinner. And I still make it and I am in my 60’s. 😊. Though the Mayo is something different which I might try,,, I also use scallions which add a good flavor.
Awww that’s the best! Thank you so much for sharing that with me, Marguerite 🙂
Can these be made the day before a party?
Hi Kathy! We enjoy them fresh but yes that should work. I reheat them on a skillet to crisp up the edges a bit. One of my readers reported good results with baking to reheat
LOVE this recipie- used it 3x since my admire post and I love seeing the numerous comments (notifications too) from people also enjoying it.
Using it again this Sunday dinner for an asparagus salmon cake bake.
Curious though as to where my comment/review disappeared to.
I’m so happy to hear that, Christopher! Thank you for sharing that with me! Also, remind me which recipe you left the original comment under?
Theses are delicious. Thank you for another great recipe..
You’re welcome, Daisy! I’m so happy you enjoyed it
I was craving crab cakes, and that’s when I stumbled upon this recipe. I’m not much of a cook, but I’ve recieved rave reviews everytime I’ve made these. Recipe is so simple but delicious.
That’s so great! It sounds like you have a new favorite!.
Can this recipe be made with fish other than salmon?
Hi Nina, I don’t see why not! I hope you love this “fish” patties recipe 🙂
I LOVE this recipe. I also add a little chopped chili in adobe sauce for some kick – definitely recommend if you like the smokey flavour!
That’s so great, Kiki! Thank you for sharing this review with us!
Love ur video n recipes!!
How to choose what to make every day of the week?
Thanks Shirley
Hi Shirley! I’m so happy you are enjoying our blog!! That is a tough one isn’t it? so many options! 🙂 I hope you find what you are looking for!
Made these salmon patties for dinner today, whew……. they were outstanding. My wife doesn’t eat any meat, so fish is her only thing of substance in her diet. She was blown away. Thanks so much!
That’s just awesome!! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, James 🙂
Can we add Plain Greek yogurt instead of mayonaise ?
Hi Carmen, here is what one of our readers posted, “I used greek yogurt instead of mayo, which worked very well” I hope that helps! 🙂
Natasha, we made these salmon patties last night following your recipe and they were superb. I set aside about 1/3 of the mix and added cayenne(we like spicy) and that gave it a flavorful character.
Oh, and I added just about a 1/4 wedge of fresh lemon juice to the mix too. Love your site!
That’s a great idea, Frank! Thank you for sharing that with me! I will have to try that!
I went to a gathering of friends this evening and decided to make a batch of these. There were compliments and requests for this recipe, so I sent out your link. These really are delicious and you’re right, the tartar sauce is so much better than store bought. Thanks Natasha!
Awww that’s the best! Thank you so much for sharing that with me :). I’m all smiles!
Hi Natasha, I love this recipe. Can I upload your recipe to my fitness pal (the link you have provided elsewhere on your site) so that I can get the nutritional information? The site is asking me if I have authorization from the recipe author to upload it to the my fitness pal recipe database.
Hi Miriam, yes that would be fine, but I also went ahead and added the nutrition info on this recipe for you. I hope you love these salmon patties!
Salmon patties are one of my favorites and these are the BEST! I’ve made them twice so far and they were even better the second time. I love your recipes and the way you present them. Thank you so much.
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for sharing your great review!
I made these today. I did not have the red pepper or fresh parsley. I used jarred parsley and capers rinsed. This was fabulous. I can’t wait to make this with the red pepper!!! Thanks!
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us!
Absolutely delicious! Thank you for yet another perfect recipe!
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us!
Thank you for such a delicious recipe! I used canned salmon from Costco (3 cans) and they turned out perfectly!
That’s so great Laura!!
I made these tonight for dinner and they were fabulous. My husband keeps raving over how good they were. Thank you for another great recipe.
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for sharing your great review!
Can you substitute anything for mayonnaise? I am allergic but recipe looks great! Thank you
Hi Millie! I honestly haven’t experimented with any substitutions. Something like sour cream may work, but I just haven’t tested it to make a good recommendation. You might also substitute with a little olive oil for extra moisture. I’ve also seen people sub mayo with mashed avocado for a healthier substitute, but again, I haven’t tested it in this recipe.
Hi! I made salmon salad recipe (2 pounds) with wild caught Alaskan pink salmon canned yesterday. Super delicious…then I wanted salmon patties today so I tried your recipe from the existing salmon sals recipe. I used half off my salad recipe mix and added your ingredients. I added 2 tsps of Worcestershire and boy o boy that were out of this world the tastiest salmon patties I have ever made!!!!
Wow! That’s so great, Cindy! Thank you for that amazing feedback!
Made these twice, the second time I didn’t bake the salmon, just pulsed it in the food processor and they came out even more moist and delicious! Highly suggest using raw salmon, it will cook through in the pan:)
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us!
Hey Natasha! Love your recipe! Is there any ways that I can prepare the Salmon without baking them since I don’t have an oven at home but I don’t want to use canned salmon as well. I am a beginner in cooking and really want to try cook this fantastic dish! Thank you so much!!
Hi Iris! I think frying the salmon on low heat may work if you don’t want to use an oven. 🙂 I hope this helps
I have made these several times and we love them. Have always used home canned salmon and generally use a can of red and a can of smoked.
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for sharing your great review!
Yes I made them a month ago and my husband and son couldn’t get enough. So I’m making them again and I’m sure they will love them again. By the way I’m making extra!!! Lol
These go fast don’t they!? I’m so happy your family is enjoying that!
I’ve made this recipe over 20 times. Its an easy way to eat salmon. I love the way all the ingredients taste together.
Thanks!!!
Sounds like you found a favorite Anjela!! Thank you for sharing this review with us!
First time cooking salmon and made these as a side dish for lunch today. I couldn’t stop eating it, it was so awesomely delicious.
My daughter loves salmon so I think I will be making more of these sooner than later. Thank you so much for the recipe.
That’s so great! It sounds like you have a new favorite! Thank you for the wonderful review, Wasan!
Great recipe! The freshly cooked Salmon makes all the difference-plus much healthier-no additives for preservation as in the canned product. Thank you-I always love a great tasting recipe that takes minutes prepare!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Wow!! I tried these patties last night with some salmon that I had left over and they were amazing. They were not at all dry. I didn’t have all the ingredient to make the sauce but will try it next time I make the patties. Thank you for all the recipes that you share with us!
My pleasure Larysa! I’m so happy you enjoyed these!
These were amazing, my husband was obsessed with them, this recipe is a keeper !
Thank you for this awesome review, Aldi!
These sound amazing! Could you bake them instead of frying them?
It is so good! One of my readers reported good results baking but I haven’t heard back with the details on bake time and temperature. If you test it out that way, let me know how you like them baked. I have found that it helps to control splatter when I sauté things in my dutch oven since it has tall walls and contains the oils 🙂
Hello Natasha
I live on Vancouver Island and am very fortunate to always have an abundant supply of wild Chinook and Coho salmon on hand.
Your recipe for salmon patties is the best I’ve ever had. I now make a triple batch, vacuum pack them in dinner size amounts and freeze them. The only tweak I make to the recipe is adding a few drops of Maggi sauce. Thanks for this great recipe Natasha, keep up the good work. Cheers. Ron.
Hi Ron! That’s so awesome! Thank you for this amazing compliment! I’m so happy you love this so much to make a triple batch!!
Amazing recipe ! Made them
So many times now , and directed all my friends to your website to try out this recipe !
Thank you for
Sharing this with us !
I’m so happy you enjoyed that Sharon!!
Hi, Natasha!
we are always on the lookout for a good salmon patty/cake/burger recipe. So far none have been satisfying. However, I made your recipe using canned wild caught red salmon (2 – 7 ounce cans) and these were amazing salmon patties! This is a keeper recipe for sure! Thanks!
Thanks so much for this awesome review, Karen!! Thank you for sharing this with us!
Super delicious, thanks Natasha!!!
My pleasure!!
I’ve made several salmon cake recipes but this one is by far my favorite. I like to double it and put them in food saver packets of 4 each.
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for sharing your great review!
I’ve been wanting to try this recipe for a long time.. Finally made it tonight to serve along with the ribeyes we were having.. Everyone raved about them 🙂 We will be trying them again but bigger next time to make salmon burgers. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful recipe!! 🙂
You’re so welcome, Debbie!
Out of the world and is so good! so glad you shared this every time I make salmon patties I don’t really like them but this is divine. Never had made with fresh salmon always use canned and I did it this time with fresh it was so good and the homemade tartar sauce my family loved it my husband told me it was better than store-bought and so did my daughter they just wanted to eat it 😂
Wow! Thank you so much for this awesome review, Linda!!
Hi! These look delicious – going to try them immediately! Your pronunciation of ‘worchestershire’ made me chuckle though! I’m from the UK so if you will allow me to help – it’s pronounced “Wuss-ter-sheer”. (Although most brits call it Wuss-ter sauce – a lazy nickname for it!) Hope that makes things easier for you in the future!
Thanks for the suggestion Emma!! I appreciate that.
hey, thanks for the pronunciation breakdown…I’ve mangled that word for years… lol
Hi Yuliya, thank you for sharing that substitution with us.
Hi Natasha … A hit once again!! Love your recipes. My daughter and her family said the salmon cakes were delicious! In fact, every recipe of yours I’ve tried is being added to my hand written cook book (I’m from that generation). Keep up the great work!!
I love that Anna! I’m so happy you all enjoyed this recipe! Thank you for the thoughtful review!
Someone actually bothered to make a comment about beautiful hair being in the way lol Lord.
Anyway, made these and substituted panko for almond flour since hubby and I eat lowcarb.
DELICIOUS!! Will definitely make these as appetizers for our next family get together
Thank you!!
Hi Gennel! Thank you so much for your amazing feedback! I’m so happy to hear you enjoyed that!
Hi Natasha! I am excited as I just subscribed after a few recipes posted on FB. I am going to try these Salmon Patties for company coming from the Oregon Coast. I am sure the Salmon won’t be as good as the fresh Salmon my folks use to catch up there, but I think they’ll love them. My Mom used to make them and Tuna Patties when we were kids, but not quite as fancy as these! I also like the ideas from some of your other followers such as the Lemon Zest, Dijon Mustard. etc. I’ll bet pinch of Dill would be too. I’m also sure that Crab meat would be a great substitute! Can’t wait to try it!
Hi Steve! I think this would be the perfect dish to serve for family! I love that you are planning ahead! I look forward to hearing how you like this recipe!
I made these tonight for my father and fiancé and myself! We all loved them! I do not eat dairy, so I substituted the butter with an olive oil based “butter” instead. I used the brand Earth Balance. It was still great! We are full, satisfied and excited about left overs! 😋
Thank you for sharing that with us Lindsay! I’m so happy you enjoyed this dish!
my mom used to make salmon patties tol out of canned salmon & they were so good, & I also never learned how she made them, but now i dont need too!..
Hey Debbie! I’m so happy you discovered this recipe! Sounds like it came at the right time. Enjoy!!
As soon as I saw this recipe I knew I had to make it. They are everything promised and more.
I don’t usually tweet recipes the first I eat I try them but I love lemon zest and did add some to the patties, also my husband asked to add capers to the tartar, it’s amazing!
We will definitely be adding this to our meal plans.
Thank you Jeanette! I’m so happy you enjoyed this one! Thank you!
My mom used to make something very similar when I was a kid using canned salmon. They were sooo good. I never got the recipe so I’ll try this. Thanks, looks great.
I’m so happy you discovered our recipe! Enjoy!
They are very good i made them twice now
I’m so happy you enjoyed that Debbie!
I have made these 3x now & I use Alaska Salmon filets caught in Kenai/Kasilof area ,and my husband & I love them more & more each time I make them & I also enjoy making them😄
That’s so great Debbie! Thank you for the wonderful review!
What do you think of substituting rainbow trout for the salmon
Hi Terry! I honestly haven’t tried that but it sounds delicious! If you experiment, let me know how you liked the recipe
Could you substitute the salmon with crab meat? Don’t like salmon even though the patties look good.
Hi Carol, I haven’t tried that substitution, but I bet lump crab meat would taste delicious here!
The recipes are very good .
When your showing how to prepare the food , pull your long hair back in a ponytail , it’s so long and beautiful hair , shouldn’t be dangling over the food
Thank you for your concern Donna. My hair is hair-sprayed down and pretty secure 🙂 If I was in a commercial kitchen and not cooking for my family then I definitely would have pulled it back. Thank you for watching!
Get a life Donna she isn’t in a restaurant so you won’t be eating it
That comment was uncalled for. She is not cooking for you.
I love this recipe. I added a little Dijon mustard for a little extra zest.
Thank you for sharing that with us, Noriene!
These are SO YUMMY. We aren’t a big fish family but I know we need to add more into our diet. These were a hit with my family of 4. My 15 month old gobbled one down and my 5 year old ate a few for dinner and then ate a few more for leftovers the next day for lunch! They are also simple to make, my 5 year old loved helping me. Thanks for an awesome recipe!
Hi Callie! I love that your kids enjoyed this as much as you! Thank you for this awesome review!
i love salmon patties recipe but i have a question i’m on a slow carb diet so no bread for me can i substitute with anything else tanx
Hi Elmedina, I haven’t tried this myself but one of my readers wrote in with a very helpful review on that: ” Made this to the recipe – except I used almond meal instead of bread crumbs. It was a huge hit, as was the tartar sauce.” That may help somewhat I hope.
Hi Natasha, could you not make these bites with raw salmon, instead of cooking it first then re-cooking?
Hi Susan. I haven’t tried it that way but it may work. If you experiment please let me know how you like it!
Love salmon cakes nice my mother made them when I was small. These are the best ones ever. Thank you
My pleasure! I’m so happy you liked that
These are delicious! Thank you for the terrific recipe.
You’re so welcome, Mary! I’m happy you enjoyed that.
