Salmon Patty Recipe Needed :-) UPDATED IN OP

Here`s my Nans version of Salmon fish cakes from a time when nothing was measured or weighed. Just chuck everything in and mix well, shape  and chill for a while then fry .
Tin of Salmon (well drained and mashed)
Parsley
squeeze of lemon juice
cold mashed potato
salt and pepper
1 beaten egg.

I don't measure but I use
diced onion
diced bell pepper
crushed Ritz crackers
a couple of eggs
salt and pepper

This is exactly how I do it. We just had this Sunday night. Yummy!

Very similar to above but I also crumb mine. Sometimes if I use tuna I put a packet of French onion soup in which adds a nice flavour.

That's how my mom always made them, simple but good. I make them pretty much the same now. I like to make a thrown together kind of wannabe remoulade sauce with mayonnaise, a bit of ketchup, Cajun seasoning, and lemon juice for them. DH likes Sriracha on his. My dad liked ketchup.

Off topic:

I love the backbones in the canned salmon. I wish I could still eat that.

One can of salmon with skin and bones removed
One egg
Old Bay seasoning
Parsley flakes
Bread crumbs

The Old Bay and parsley make them really tasty.

This is how we had them growing up. My mom always called them “fish cookies.” 😂

I wing it on the sauce, because I don’t want to get to fussy,

So:
This is easier to do if you have the metal mixinging bowl from a kitchenaid mixer. It fits into the 4 quart sauce pan nicely.
Fill the sauce pan with water, and heat the water to boiling
Eggs, I use 4 duck eggs. So that would be 7 chicken eggs. I use the whole egg. I have no time for separating the eggs. I don’t taste a difference.

Beat the eggs
Put in the mixing bowl and add olive oil. I start out about 1/4 cup and go from there.

Add the juice of 2 lemons. We like it really lemony

Ad chopped tarragon. You could put that nasty parsley in if you want and some dill.

Put the bowl over the hot water, keep the olive oil close.

Whisk the mix until it gets thick. Add oil until it gets to the thickness you like.
The mixture will cook a bit more you can add melted butter if you want to smooth out the sauce.
Add salt and pepper to taste.

This isn’t true hollandaise, but it is very quick and easy about five minute. To make. And tastes great with asparagus and green beans.

Sometimes I add the zest of the lemon if I have time.

I do this with tuna fish!

I need to make salmon patties. I loved my mom’s.

I used to love how the bones would kind of “pop” when you bit them. Definitely don’t take the back bones out.

I think I will make these this weekend.
