Ingredients
  

For the Patties:
  • 2 cans salmon (6 oz. each, well drained)
  • 3 T Almond Flour
  • 3 T Hemp Seeds
  • 3 T chopped green onion
  • 1 T capers
  • 1 tsp. Szeged Fish Rub
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh-ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 T olive oil for frying

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Non-stick skillet
  • Spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

Preparation Steps:
  1. Start by draining the salmon well. Remove any skin and bones if necessary. Place the salmon in a large mixing bowl and flake it with a fork.
  2. To the bowl, add the almond flour, hemp seeds, chopped green onion, capers, Szeged Fish Rub, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
  3. Crack the eggs into the mixture and stir until everything is thoroughly mixed. The eggs will help bind the patties together.
  4. Using your hands, form the mixture into small patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter. You should be able to make around 8-10 patties depending on the size.
  5. In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. You want enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan.
  6. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet, being sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  7. While the patties are cooking, you can whip up a quick tartar sauce. Combine mayonnaise, chopped pickles, lemon juice, and a dash of salt in a small bowl. Adjust the ingredients to taste.
  8. Once the patties are cooked, transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil. Serve hot with your homemade tartar sauce on the side.

Notes

  • Make sure your salmon is well-drained to prevent soggy patties.
  • For added flavor, let the mixture sit for 10-15 minutes before forming patties.
  • Try adding fresh herbs like dill or parsley for an extra burst of flavor.
  • If the mixture feels too wet, add a bit more almond flour until it holds together better.
