Ingredients
  

  • 1 can 14.75 ounces wild-caught salmon, drained and flaked
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs plain or seasoned
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup green onions finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for frying
For the Tangy Remoulade:
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon capers chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce optional
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, combine the flaked salmon, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, egg, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, green onions, garlic powder, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  2. Form the mixture into patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter. You should get about 6-8 patties.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the salmon patties to the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
  4. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  5. For the remoulade, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, capers, lemon juice, hot sauce (if using), salt, and pepper in a small bowl until smooth.
  6. Serve the salmon cakes warm with a generous dollop of tangy remoulade on the side.
