Ingredients

  • 1 can salmon(preferably red)
  • 1 small potato
  • 3T. chopped bell pepper(green or red)
  • 3T. chopped onion
  • 1T. chopped parsley
  • 1/2t. Old Bay Seasoning
  • 1t. mayonnaise
  • dash worstershire sauce
  • 2T. canola oil and enough for pan frying
  • 1 beaten egg
  • bread crumbs
  • flour or corn meal

Directions

Peel potato and cube into medium chunks. Boil about 10-15 minutes or until done (knife will easily go through). Drain. Mash. Set aside in bowl. Meanwhile, drain canned salmon. Open salmon to find bones. I do not discard because they are full of calcium. I mash them between my fingers. They are really soft. Flake salmon and mix with mashed potatoes. Saute vegetables in canola oil for 5 minutes and add to salmon-potato mixture. Add egg and seasoning . Mixture should be somewhat tight. If not, add enough bread crumbs to tighten mixture. Refridgerate for 30-45 minutes. Form into about 7-9 balls. Shape into a disc or football. Dust with either all purpose flour or corn meal. ( I sometimes use only corn flour) Fry in oil until brown and drain. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper and place in oven at 350F for about 15 minutes. Enjoy
