Instructions:
-
Prepare the Salmon: Drain the liquid from the salmon cans. Remove the skin but keep the bones intact.
-
Prepare the Aromatics: Cut the onions into small chunks and place them into a food processor along with the minced garlic. Pulse until the onions are finely minced. Alternatively, grate the onions and mix with the garlic in a large mixing bowl.
-
Combine Ingredients: Add the salmon, eggs, evaporated milk, and lemon juice to the onion-garlic mixture in the food processor. Process until smooth. If not using a food processor, mash the salmon with a potato masher until fine, then add the remaining ingredients to the mixing bowl and mix well.
-
Add Bread Crumbs: Gradually add the seasoned bread crumbs to the mixture, one-third cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. Adjust the amount of bread crumbs as needed to achieve a mixture that holds together well enough to form patties.
-
Form Patties: Shape the mixture into patties about half an inch thick.
-
Fry the Patties: Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the patties for 5-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown. You may need to fry the patties in two batches, adding a little more oil for the second batch if necessary.
-
Serve: Once golden brown and crispy, transfer the patties to a serving plate. Serve hot with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes and English peas.
These garlic herb salmon patties are a delightful combination of flavors and textures, making them a perfect choice for any meal. Enjoy the taste of the sea with this delicious and nutritious dish! 🐟🌿
