Salmon Patties

salmon,

eggs

matzah meal

chives

vegetable oil

In a bowl, mix the salmon, eggs, matzah meal and chives until well combined.

Heat about 1/8-inch vegetable oil in a saute pan over medium heat.

Shape the salmon mixture into 6 patties about 1/2 inch thick. (You can make them smaller to make more patties.) Fry, a few at a time, for about 3 minutes per side or until browned and crispy.

Oh, this takes me back to my childhood. Monday night with Salmon croquette night.

Me too except it was always Thursday night - dairy. My mom would sautee onions in the same pan as the croquettes.

Love your suggestion for the sauce. Great flavor burst on those delicious salmon patties.

My favorite childhood food. Love them cold on a sandwich.

My mother made them almost every week ! She also made cheese blintzes from scratch to serve with them ! She would have 3 frying pans going making the blintzes &amp; 1 for the croquettes! Salad was lettuce &amp; tomato - not what we would call a salad but that was that generation of Jewish mothers that were the best. You inspired me to try to make the croquettes! Great article- thank you.

This identical recipe can be substituted with canned tuna.

We ate salmon patties with mac and cheese on the side, usually on Thursdays when I wass growing uup in the 50's!  I've never made them for my own kids, but the mac and cheese was a staple for them growing up.  I always thought of it as "Jewish" food!

Mama always made these. Thank you for sharing good memories

The recipe needs salt and pepper.
I also add a little water to keep it moist

Usually when I have some canned salmon I just "wing it" to make patties and they never turn out quite right.  This time I opened up a box of Manischewitz Matzo Ball &amp; Soup mix bought on sale for 50 cents. Used the meal for these patties.  Turned out perfectly.  Looks just like your picture.  Didn't add anything extra and they taste wonderful.  I'm going to add Matzo Meal to my pantry staples.  Thank you.

Growing up my mother made them with canned tuna fish because it was cheaper.  Occasionally I will make them, always with tuna fish

What a lovely article. I also enjoy salmon cakes and prepare them frequently.  I use panko for the crunch and crispy..and a small  shake of cayenne pepper if I'm in the mood. I make a tasty topping of  Best Foods mayo with a bit of wasabi paste. Excellent fare!
Thank yuou
