  • If desired, then drenched in bread crumbs. Set aside.
  • Heat a small non-stick frying pan with a medium-high heat, then add oil. Let oil heat until it reaches about 350 degrees F.

  1. To bake these salmon patties, bake them at 375 degrees F in a preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, turning once, or until fully cooked and lightly brown on both sides.
  2. Please keep in mind that nutritional information is a rough estimate and can vary greatly based on products used.

Croquettes

Ingredients

  • 1 14.75-ounce can (418.16 g) salmon, drained and flaked
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • ½ cup (75 g) onion, diced
  • ½ teaspoon (3 g) garlic, minced
  • 1 cup (125 g) breadcrumbs, divided
  • 1 teaspoon (1.80 g) white pepper
  • 1-2 green onions, diced (about ¼ cup)
  • ½ -1 teaspoon (2.3 – 4.7 g) hot sauce
  • 1 teaspoon (2.60 g) Cajun seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon (1.42 g) salt, adjust to taste
  • 1 egg (optional for breading, see note)
  • oil (for frying)

Instructions

  • Drain the liquid from the canned salmon into a measuring cup. Flake the salmon into a large bowl, and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, gently mix the canned salmon, eggs, onion, garlic, ¼ cup breadcrumbs, white pepper, green onions, hot sauce, Cajun seasoning, and salt.
  • Grab about 2-3 tablespoons of the mixture, then shape it into a croquette using your hands into an oval shape – just like an egg. Repeat the process until the salmon mixture is all used up.
  • Lightly dip the croquettes into the extra egg mixture until it is completely coated. Then roll them in breadcrumbs. Set aside.
  • Heat a small non-stick frying pan with medium-high heat, then add about ½ cup of oil. Let the oil heat until it reaches about 350℉/177℃.
  • Gently place croquette in oil using a frying spoon, if needed, then fry about two minutes per side or until golden brown. You may have to do it in batches to prevent the croquettes from getting soggy. 
  • Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels and serve warm with remoulade sauce.

Tips & Notes:

  • You may dip them in lightly beaten eggs before coating them in bread crumbs for extra crispness.
  • If you’re not a fan of anything canned, you may poach a one-pound salmon fillet, then simmer in a lightly seasoned liquid, flake it once cooked, and proceed to the next step.
  • After mixing all the ingredients, let it sit for 15 minutes in the fridge to firm up before you start rolling them.
  • If planning on pan-frying, then shape them into patties to cook more evenly.
  • Please keep in mind that the nutritional information is a rough estimate and can vary significantly based on the products used in the recipe.
